Incorporating Your Communication Driver Source File into Your VTS Application

I/O drivers are supplied as separate items in script applications. The drivers for VTS script applications are delivered as a series of .src files that contain the source code for each driver (see Communication Driver Template for details on driver source files). To use an I/O driver in your script application, you must perform the following steps:

1.  Copy the source file (with the .src extension) containing your driver into your application's directory.

2.  Modify the application's AppMod.src file by adding a line of text in the POINTS  section similar to the text underlined in the example below:

  [ (POINTS)  {========= Modules that are point templates =========}

    PMC1001 Module   "PMC1001.src"    { virtual driver/Simulator   };   

  ]

3.  Recompile your application by clicking the Compile button in the VAM.

 

Note: The section that follows provides step-by-step instructions on the installation of a new driver into a VTS application (using the GE 9030 SNP Driver as an example).
