The Transport field on the Target Device Connectivity Options: Kernel Services Map page allows you to select one of the following kernel transports:
- Ethernet
- Serial
- USB
- None
When you choose Ethernet or Serial, you must also configure the transport by choosing the Settings button associated with the Transport field. Platform Builder displays a dialog box where you can configure the kernel transport.
Depending on the transport selected, one of the following dialog boxes is selected:
- Ethernet KITL Settings
- Serial KITL Settings
For more information about this dialog box, see Target Device Connectivity Options Dialog Box.
Ethernet KITL Settings
This dialog box allows you to specify settings for the Ethernet kernel transport.
- Device KITL Name
Specifies the name of the target device to establish a kernel-level connection with.
- Active Devices
Displays the names of active target devices that are connected to the network.
- Use device name from bootloader
If you select this check box, Platform Builder uses the name of the target device associated with the current boot loader.
- OK
Validates and saves the settings for the Ethernet kernel transport, and then returns to the Target Device Connectivity Options dialog box.
- Cancel
Cancels changes you made to the settings for the Ethernet kernel transport and closes the dialog box without saving changes.
Serial KITL Settings
This dialog box allows you to specify settings for the serial kernel transport.
- COM Port
Displays the port to use for serial communication.
- Baud Rate
Displays the baud rate for the serial connection.
- Data Bits
Specifies the number of data bits.
- Parity
Specifies the parity of the serial connection, if any.
- Flow Control
Specifies whether you want to use hardware for flow control.
- Stop Bits
Specifies the number of stop bits.
- OK
Validates and saves the settings for the serial kernel transport, and then returns to the KernelService Map tab.
- Cancel
Cancels changes you made to the settings for the serial kernel transport and closes the dialog box without saving changes.
