What’s in the box?
Software
As you can see in appendix A, the software is always structured in 4 levels. The highest level is the MPT
which is not more than a toolbox for the user to make his life easy. Below you have the layer of the User
interfaces, the PSF level and finally the firmware layer.
Firmware Layer
80 % of the firmware contains general function of the PTC04. Merged with this, there are module
(product) specific commands. These commands are made to communicate with the specific MLX product.
It’s important that the correct firmware is loaded in the PTC04 programmer. Software ID functions allow
higher layers to check if the firmware can be used for that specific MLX product.
PSF Layer (DLL)
All the interface items between host PC and Programmer are covered by the PSF layer. On this level a
DLL makes all functions of the PTC04 and the MLX product available to the user.
The user can make a choice by using any programming language (Lab view, Visual C, Visual Basic,
Excel, etc…) to communicate with the DLL (PDF layer). When the user uses the interface program as
delivered by Melexis, this layer is of no importance.
We always recommend the customer to connect his application software to the PSF layer. On this layer,
all commands of the firmware are accessible.
Again, two different parts can be found:
Tip: Melexis can always provide example source codes in order to show how we program the interface
between different instructions.
