RTiC-Lab Application Example: an I/O Tester

This chapter develops a very simple application from the ground up. Namely, this application will be used to test all the I/O hardware for a given hardware configuration. It will be used to actively change the voltages in the D/A pins, while actively reading in the voltages in the A/D pins. It is assumed that both the A/D and D/A drivers have already been appropriately written as described in the previous chapter and therefore will not be discussed further, In what follows, assume that the user must monitor five sensor readings (measured via five A/D board channels), and must be able to output five distinct voltages (via the pins of the D/A boards). These example files can be found under the examples/IO_tester directory under the main source directory of the RTiC-Lab distribution. Other full examples can also be found in the examples directory.
