Elec2630 Embedded System Theory

This document describes the NETIOM card, which is a component that can be used in distributed embedded systems. The NETIOM card has inputs, outputs, analog inputs, serial and Ethernet ports. It can operate locally for initialization or over a network. When operating over a network, it can serve web pages, send automatic emails, and read/write I/O values. It can function as a web server with 32KB of web space. Example web pages and CGI scripts are shown that could control I/O over the web. The card also has the ability to generate emails in response to hardware events.

Approaches
NETIOM CARD
A Useful Component of a
distributed Embedded System

 16 Digital Inputs
 16 Digital Outputs
 4 Analogue Inputs
 1 Serial Port
 1 Ethernet Port
Two Modes of Operation
 LOCAL – Initialisation of network
parameters and upload of web pages from
PC (Link via Serial Port)

 NETWORK – A range of Network Facilities,


including serving standard web pages,
sending automatic emails and reading and
writing I/O values over the Web ( via RJ45
10 Mb Ethernet port)
PC Application for Local
initialisation (Ethernet setup)
PC Application for Local
Initialisation (Other Features)
Action as a small Web
Server
 Can act as an HTTP server on the
Web
 Contains 32K of web space
 Can generate e-mails in response to
hardware events
 Can act as a client to a remote server
 Runs on local networks like the
University Intranet and on wide area
networks like the WWW.
A Simple web page example

This page is the access control point for the support area of all students
working on PRACTICAL EMBEDDED SYSTEMS. Relevant members of staff also have access via this page.<br>

A Line of code from the web page example


Using FORMS. Note the action which is a filename ending in
the extension .cgi

CGI is a type of file that provides a COMMON GATEWAY


INTERFACE to forms and runs on the server

The Netiom uses cgi files where some of the variables are
replaced by actual values from the hardware and then sent
back to the web users screen. Input values from a user
form can update values in the hardware
Email Feature
 The card can be set up so that a input to
the hardware, or a value from counters
and timers within the hardware reacting to
external events, can be set to generate a
pre written message to specific locations
as an automatic alarm of system
problems.
 This could be used to contact support staff
in the case of a malfunction or more
usefully an impending malfunction
