Hilscher PROFiBUS: cifx-50-dp & Error opening Channel! State = 0x800A0003

dmrich - April 12, 2011

Hello All,
Has any one had any success in running the cifxsample program provided by Hilscher ?

Details: MVL6
Collection: intel-atom-z530-moblin-v2-1-2.6.31-1002031022

Configured the Card under SYCON.net: note: 'Currently no online connection to the Linux target available'. Sigh.

I have uio_netx & uio included, i.e netX UIO Kernel Module, cifX Userspace Library & cifX example program built as per the manual.

When I run the example program, the EnumBoardDemo() is ok, SysdeviceDemo() is ok. However I get a failue at the ChannelDemo() routine.

ChannelDemo() called
---------- Communication Channel demo ----------
Error opening Channel! State = 0x800A0003
----------------------------------------------------
BlockDemo() called

--- Read / Write Block Information ---
Error opening Channel!

Any thoughts?
I am awaiting response from the manufacturer as well..

TIA,
Dave.

Hi Dave,

I have not used that hardware before, however, I'm curious whether Linux drivers actually exist. I can only find 3 driver sets on the Hilscher site, none of which includes Linux. Did Hilscher provide any information to you yet?

Thanks

Bill
