I have another Ethernet issue on an RCM6750. I power up the module with an Ethernet cable attached, it powers up fine. I then unplug the Ethernet cable, my app correctly detects the disconnected cable and brings Ethernet down. When the cable is plugged back in, the Net.Lib crashes and the module reboots. Here is what I do: void CheckCable() if ( !pd_havelink( IF_ETH0 ) ) { if (ifpend...

I have discovered an interesting mode of operation for the Ethernet interface on the RCM3900. With Ethernet configured for DHCP mode, either power up the module without the Ethernet cable plugged in, or unplug it after power up. You will find that after a few minutes the Ethernet controller chip (Asix) gets very hot. Hot enough that you can't keep your finger on the part without burnin...

I'm looking into developing a product for classroom monitoring that would communicate over ethernet and be powered by 802.3af compliant "Power Over Ethernet". Since I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel, I'm looking for a cheap microprocessor solution like the Rabbit modules where I can get the ethernet and web server aspect pre- built. The Ra

Just got back into some RCM6750 based work and am sorting out a little problem. I noticed that when I had my board plugged into a hub, every now and then ethernet connectivity would go away. Board was running other stuff, but nothing was making it out of the stack.

Hello, I need to test performances of a RCM 3200 sending UDP datagrams on a LAN. In order to make those tests I need to exclude autonegotiation on the Ethernet, and manually set parameters like speed and duplex. How to do that? Any document to read for better explanation? My RCM3200 mounts an ASIX AX88796 as Ethernet controller. Thanks,

Hello, I have a working board that uses an RCM4100. I need to switch to RCM4000 due to the ethernet support. No problem no different pins, I checked the datasheet with my schematic. Anyway I have some difficulties: 1) the RCM4000 requires a 20MHz clock (not doubled) in order to get the ethernet working. With such a clock I'm not able to get the correct baud rate for serials (9600, 57600,...

Hi I am using a RCM2110. I code a small "server", it opens a Tcp socket in listen. Until a client connects to the Rabbit, it doesn't transmit/receive packets. So the application has to check the Ethernet connectivity. I unplug the Ethernet cable from the RCM2110 RJ45 socket, the network LED turns off, but the tw

Hello Friends, I have been using BL2600 for my projects to communicate with Touch Screen Panels via Modbus TCP. I used a cross over Ethernet cable so far because I used one to one connection. Now I tried to connect two BL2600s to one single Touch Screen via an Ethernet switch using straight through cable. This works fine, but when any of the BL2600 looses physical connection it cannot pic...

Hi, I'm in need for a VCP (Virtual Com Port Driver) for the Serial Ethernet Application Kit. I would like the driver to make an additional Com port on my computer that then connects to my development board. Then any serial program on my computer can send/receive information to the development board via ethernet. Would any one know if any exists?

Is anyone having reliability problems with the RCM3720? We have used several hundred RCM3720s in a product we build. After a few days to a few months the RCM3720 will lose the ability to connect via Ethernet, the on board Ethernet controller gets hot and the RCM3720 will not respond even to RFU.exe when we get the product back from the field. The RCM3720 operates in a benign environment:...
