Walter Your best bet. Run your whole control loop on the PRU that's as realtime as you get. Use a foreground background loop. Use the ARM like a PC with Linux to access the system via ethernet. You could also run control on ARM without linux but this way you have all the resources of Linux to access the system. This assumes your output's from control loop are accessable from PRU. The point is Linux can only run slow control loops and this way you don't have to debug the delay. This wasn't obvious to me before as all the hard realtime systems I work on run an RTOS on ARM it has all the resources of Linux but cost $$$$$. In our system we did that on the DSP the PID did the math on a fast DSP. ARM is just a gateway to outside world. Myself I'd debug the PRU with JTAG and CCS you can see exactly what's going on and dump these registers from CCS. Some people like printf but with a PRU based system you are essentially doing barebones. There's videos on PRU development doing this online. Loading code via rproc and using printf is like burning and erasing an eeprom to test your changes. You wait 45 minutes for it to erase try your code and do it again. Not for me. Mark

From what I can tell, this is adding the ADC register offset to the base address of the (?) wakeup register block, which is passed as parameter to HWREG (no doubt some macro that sets up actual access to the SoC registers and returns a pointer or some such), and then assigns 0x02 into the register so indicated. -- Dennis L Bieber -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
