How to customize devices? [message #1790026]

Hi, I download 4diac-ide and create a simple project as you can see in attached file. But I can only use limited devices(I use FORTE_PC for sample project).

index.php/fa/32995/0/

How to add new different device into 4diac-ide? I have porting my rte to my own hardware, so I need add this new device into 4diac-ide, any suggestion is welcome.

Thanks a lot!
Henry

Hi,

You don't need to add your new device if you don't have any new variable to add to it (lie MGR_ID). Even your ported RTE should work if no changes in the interface of the device was done. But if you really want to add a new one, I'd say you could look for the file FORTE_PC.dev in the t ypelibrary of your 4diac project, and copy and edit it. It's a plain XML file
