Chapter 3 -Application Development Instructions
You can add almost unlimited capabilities to the SY-7000 terminal by writing your own terminal
applications. The following section describes the way in which to develop your own customized
application for the SY-7000 terminal.
3.1 Toolchain Development Tools
This sections lists the tools needed to compile and link the application used for developing an application
for SY-7000.
3.1.1 CygWin
CygWin is a collection of free software tools which allow various versions of Mcrosoft Windows to act
similarly to a Unix system. This aims mainly at porting software that runs on POSIX systems (such as
Linux, BSD, and Unix systems) to run on Windows. For information about how to download and use
Cygwin see Setting Up the PIK Environment on page 38 .
3.1.2 Cross Compiler
Cross Compiler is provided in the SY-7000 SDK kit in a tar file called tools.2006-12-15.tar.gz).
Step 1. Extract the cross compiler by opening the CygWin window and typing “cd /” and a command
such as the one below, for a file residing in the C:/CrossCompiler directory.
tar –xzf /cygdrive/c/CrosCompiler/ tools.2006-12-15.tar.gz
Note: If your TAR file resides in a location different than C:/CrossCompiler edit the command to
match the file location.
Step 2. After extracting the Cross Compiler, add the path C:\cygwin\tools\bin to the Path variable
environment.
3.1.3 FTP or TFTP Server
An FTP or TFTP server is needed to upload the application from the host to the terminal. The FTP or
TFTP server must be available in the host and must indicate the directory where the application exists.
3.2 Communication Between the Host and Terminal
Communication between host and terminal can be done either by Serial port or via Telnet. The
communication in both ways is described below.
3.2.1 Setting up Communication by a Serial Port
Step 3. Physically connect between the host and the terminal with a Serial port cable.
Step 4. Open a communication program such as HyperTerminal (in Windows XP open via Start/
Programs/ Accessories/ HyperTerminal)
Step 5. Enter the following details to set the connection:
Bits per second = 38400 (baud rate)
Data bits = 8
Parity = None
