Peripheral and Interface Components
Raw mode
Raw mode allows the byte stream to pass unmodified between the host and the target. This
means that the Terminal component does not participate in initial capability negotiations
between the host and client, and instead simply acts as a TCP/IP port. You can take advantage
of this feature to directly connect to your target through the Terminal component.
5.6.2 Setting-up a network connection and configuring the networking environment for Microsoft
Windows
This section describes how to setup a network connection for your PC, and then to configure the
networking environment for use by Fast Models on a Microsoft Windows platform.
Note
You must ensure that you first install the third-party IP package in the Fast Models networking
environment.
Setting-up a network connection
To setup the network connection:
1. Close all non-essential applications.
2. Install the TAP driver and configure it:
• Access the base location of Fast Model Portfolio, default C:\Program
Files\ARM\FastModelPortfolio_6.1
• Run ModelNetworking\add_adapter_32.bat for 32-bit Microsoft Windows.
3. Select Start → Control Panel → Network Connections and locate the newly-installed
TAP device.
4. Press the Ctrl key to multi-select at least one real Ethernet adapter connection.
5. Right-click and select Bridge Connections.
Note
You only have to perform the above steps once, at the beginning.
Configuring the networking environment
Use System generator to load the required project and build a model, or use Model Shell or
Model Debugger to start a pre-built model.
Set the following parameters on the HostBridge and SMSC_91C111 components. Enter:
hostbridge.interfaceName="ARM"
smsc_91c111.enabled=1
where ARM is the adapter built into the network bridge, and is 0 by default. If ARM0
already exists, then use the next available integer, that is, 1, 2, 3...
Note
The above has not been tested with wireless network adapters.
