a) To establish a network connection to an ANET3910-EN, with the AIM Network
Server (ANS) running , the API function “ApiConnectToServer” has to be called.
As already mentioned above, the alias name or IP Address must be passed as a
parameter for proper initialisation of the API network connection.
b) The API function “ApiOpenEx” has to be called to initialize the Application
Interface for the specified module, before any other API S/W Library function is
used for the specified module. This function establishes connectivity between the
Application Interface and the AIM board by calling operating system routines to
open the AIM board and initialize a shared memory area for host-to-target
communication.
For further information see the AIM Software “Reference Manual”.
3.1.8 Connecting the ANET3910-EN to the STANAG3838 Low Speed Bus
The MIL-STD-1553 Specification clearly defines the process of coupling subsystems to
the MIL-STD-1553/ STANAG-3838 Bus.
For the connection to Low speed bus, there are following coupling options:
1) Direct coupled
2) Transformer coupled
In addition to these two standard methods of connecting to the bus as specified in the
MIL-STD-1553 specification, an AIM Network Emulation Coupling mode is provided,
which allows a direct connection between a MIL-STD-1553/ STANAG-3838 Remote
Terminal and the ANET3910-EN, if the Remote Terminal implements a transformer
coupled interface.
To physically suspend the ANET3910-EN Low Speed Bus signal-lines from the frontend
connector, the Isolated Coupling mode is provided.
Further information about the Low Speed Bus coupling modes can be found in chapter
4.4.
All methods are described in the following sections:
