The bad news is that with only 2 megs of storage, it will be filled in under a minute. There is a bright side to this, namely that most of the time all 96 modules will never all be storing at 128 times a second. I have also made some major changes to the layout of the site which you can see by just browsing around. For now though, I'm back to programming the PC code in Visual Basic. A lot of the news in the past here has been focused on the hardware aspect of the project, but this is only half of the design.
Software needs to be written to enable the embedded processor to function correctly.
Also, Windows based software needs to be completed to give the user a GUI in which to view and manipulate the downloaded data from the car. The first parts of this next phase are coming into place. The software for the embedded CPU card has been completed to the point that it boots and executes a timed interrupt which toggles a chip select line. I can put a logic probe on the chip select line and visually see the levels changing at a regular interval, so one of the harder steps has been completed. Eventually I plan to have all the code charted out so folks can review how the system functions.
