Getting started with REXYGEN and the PiFace Digital expansion board

This example contains source files of a demonstration project, which is a modification of the project from the Getting started manual for the Raspberry Pi platform.

Prerequisites

  • REXYGEN Runtime Core and RPiDrv module must be installed and running on the Raspberry Pi
  • SPI bus must be enabled on the Raspberry Pi

Timing of the project

The algorithm runs each 100 milliseconds (0.1 s). See the EXEC function block,
tick x ntick0 = 0.05 x 2 = 0.1 s

Running the example

  • The *exec.mdl file is the project main file. Open it with REXYGEN Studio.
  • Compile and download the project to the target device.
  • Connect to the HMI using your web browser, e.g. http://192.168.1.100:8008 (use the IP address of your target device!)
