This is a group for folks designing and programming embedded systems using the Rabbit Semiconductor C-programmable microcontroller. Rabbit Semi is a spin-off from Z-World who makes a variety of embedded modules and tools. This group is not affiliated with either Rabbit or Z-World, but is a user forum for sharing ideas, asking questions, flaunting knowledge, and other typical user group stuff. The Rabbit is a powerful uC, supported by a full-featured C-compiler.
RCM4300 ethernet cable detect problem - mfawzy79 - Jul 2 1:50:20 2009
Hi,
I'm using the RCm4300 and i have a problem that when i download the code to the module then i connect the Ethernet cable to the module, the module isn't able to detect that the cable is plugged, i have to turn off the power then ON to detect the problem.
by the way, i found a problem in the fat library with the ucos,which is
the _fat_automount function is calling fat_UnmountDevice inline 3437 but it should call _fat_UnmountDevice.
when calling fat_automount under the ucos, it should pend on a semaphore and if it got it, the FAT API _fat_automount will be started the problem that the _fat_automount is calling fat_UnmountDevice which is pending also on the semaphore so will timeout and break the code.
i hope it help
Best Regards

Try Dynamic C 10.54. They fixed a bug with the ASIX driver (RCM4200,
RCM4300) that affected some network setups (I saw it with a 10Base-T
hub).
- Defect 30186 fixed. Boards equipped with ASIX Ethernet now
reliably recover link after a cable unplug, replug sequence.

There is a bug in the ASIX chip that will cause it to not negotiate
correctly with some hubs/switches. The fix was to use a very long reset
to the chip, something like 3 seconds. It would work on a power-up but
not on later resets.
The bug was fixed in the Softools port of the stack. AFAIK, ZW never
implemented the fix. I also notice on the newer modules the no longer
feed a pin to the ASIX chip to use as a reset. So, your only option may
be to get a different hub/switch.

RE: RCM4xxx way to do equiv of #include? - Bob Colwell - Jul 8 20:13:32 2009
I've succeeded at interfacing to my 2-line LCD display from my RCM4400W

To use lib with #use, you need to add the file to the lib.dir in the DC
install directory.
The DC docs describe how to generate libraries.

Hi All
I am having an issue with Rabbit Web.
Sometimes I have to push the submit button more than once.
Anyone else out there have any pointers?

Yes I have had this problem with the submit button (and in general my
experience with the Rabbit Web is not very positive). This is not a big
problem however since we only use it rarely in-house for some testing (i.e.
we don't use it in our customer solutions). Hope anyone has some nice
pointers on this issue.

Seeing as how you submitted this question twice, maybe the problem is in your web browser and not with Rabbit Web.

how to transfer a file from PC to RCM4400W? - Bob Colwell - Jul 9 20:25:16 2009
Suppose one wanted to transfer a binary file from a PC to the filesystem on
the flash of an RCM4400W. I would have thought the Rabbit File Utility would
do that, but it seems geared to downloading .bin files only (which I presume
are the executables that the Rabbit processor uses.)
RFU does have a window in which you can specify all sorts of interesting
things like "8 bit cold loader", "serial pilot BIOS" and others, but none of
them seem like random files like the kind I want to download.
Anyone know how to do this? Thanks.-BobC

You can add FTP support to your code. you will have to write code to
store the file.
I normally define my own protocol and write a PC app and code on the
rabbit to handle the transfer.

You can "#use" your own library file but you have to include the path in
the rabbit library directory file, normally located:

Just open with a text editor and add the path of your library.

You will already have done something like this...
tcp_reserveport(PORT);
tcp_listen(&commsSock,PORT,0,0,NULL,0);
So now you must periodically call
tcp_tick(&commsSock);
And then when:
sock_established(&commsSock) == true
you know your client has connected.
You know the client has disconnected when:
tcp_tick(&commsSock)==0
Hope this helps.
Kenny.

I am using PPP for the connection.
Where do I get the definition / structure for

I looked in TCP.LIB and tried to use that structure but I get an error

I get the following error messages when I add tcp_listen

line 577 : WARNING HUMIDITYPPP.C : Wrong type for parameter 1.

I am using PPP for the connection.
Where do I get the definition / structure for
tcp_listen(&commsSock,80,0,0,NULL,0);
I looked in TCP.LIB and tried to use that structure but I get an error
message:
I do already have
tcp_reserveport(80);
I get the following error messages when I add tcp_listen
line 577 : ERROR HUMIDITYPPP.C : Expecting function or variable name.
line 577 : WARNING HUMIDITYPPP.C : Wrong type for parameter 1.
line 577 : ERROR HUMIDITYPPP.C : Invalid expression - need lvalue.

RE: Re: RCM4300 ethernet cable detect problem - Paul Kelly - Aug 6 5:51:21 2009
I've, unfortunately, just come across this problem. I'm really stuck because
I'm connecting directly to a PC via a crossover cable.
Anyone got any opinions on the following.
Adding code to try to cycle the interface if it detects it's down for more
than a few seconds.
Allowing an external reset to the board if the interface is down for more
than a few minutes.
Reconfiguring the Gigabit Ethernet port on the PC to lock it at 100FDX???
Any ideas appreciated..

There is a bug in the ASIX chip that will cause it to not negotiate
correctly with some hubs/switches. The fix was to use a very long reset
to the chip, something like 3 seconds. It would work on a power-up but
not on later resets.
The bug was fixed in the Softools port of the stack. AFAIK, ZW never
implemented the fix. I also notice on the newer modules the no longer
feed a pin to the ASIX chip to use as a reset. So, your only option may
be to get a different hub/switch.

RE: Re: RCM4300 ethernet cable detect problem - Paul Kelly - Aug 7 18:09:39 2009
An update. This problem occurred on a 3375 module, I was able to fix it by
locking the Gigabit Ethernet port on the PC to 100FDX.
