Connecting to the 6711 DSK

Started by bobt...@hotmail.com March 18, 2007
Hi, Im attempting to connect a GUI (running on the host computer) to the 6711DSK. The idea is that I have developed a small library of real-time audio effects using the PCM3003 Daughter card, and I wish to use a simple GUI to allow the user to control the effects rather than having to reload each effect algorithm and using the DIP switches to alter the parameters.

Basically, it will be something like this:

---------------- ------------
| HOST MACHINE | <=== PARALLEL CABLE ===> | 6711 DSK |
---------------- ------------
| |
| |
------- give user control of the effects ---------------------------
| GUI | <--------------------------------> | AUDIO EFFECT ALGORITHMS |
------- ---------------------------

Does anyone have any code / sources for me to have a read through so I can develop this interface between the host and the DSK; hopefully [with time permitting], my application will be a standalone .exe and it will automatically download the algorithms to the memory of the DSK and give user simple control over the parameters by means of a simple GUI.

Thanks.
