Overview
Trace Systems TCPmaker PRO for PIC18, PIC24, PIC32 makes Embedded Web Servers Made Simple!
Looking for a quick and easy way to make embedded web devices? Need devices that serve up great looking and highly interactive web pages on any browser? Don't want to have to learn JavaScript, and then AJAX, and all that other stuff? Then get your hands on TCPmaker! Use TCPmaker's drag and drop Visual Page Designer to make great looking interactive web pages that are small enough to be served up by a microcontroller, yet highly interactive, with named variables to transfer your data, and controls that you can grab onto: Beautiful 3D Pushbuttons, Sliders, Bar Gauges, Indicators, and more!
Then, TCPmaker will generate custom C source code for your PIC to "wire it all together." All you need to do is fill in some simple event handlers, compile the code (with a compiler you already own), and program your device. You're on the Ethernet in minutes, and there's no Windows programming at all!
Key Product Features:
- 2-Way Direct Transfer of Variables: if you define a data item called “Pot1,” then your generated PIC code contains a variable called “Pot1”. PIC and PC are automatically kept in sync.
- Generates custom source code to connect your variables to controls shown in browser
- Packs and unpacks data for you at both ends: always gets it right!
- Transfer variables:
-User-defined names such as “Pot1”
-Types: integer, scaled integer, string, vector
-Optional linkage to browser controls
- Custom, c-style string formatting
- Generated event handlers are called when a data item is changed
- Microcontroller and browser display are automatically synchronized & refreshed
- No need to write any web content (e.g. HTML or Javascript) yourself
- Supported PIC compilers: Microchip MPLAB C Compilers for PIC18, PIC24, dsPIC, PIC32; Hi-Tech PICC-18
- Uses Microchip TCP-IP Stack
- Multi-page interactive layouts, with special time-saving design features:
-Clone page: duplicate a page with all controls on it, preserving all control property settings
-Master template: Gives all pages a consistent look
- Can display .JPG images and Flash animations (*.swf)
- Diagnostic tools
- More controls: Picture (or animation) display, Oscilloscope graph, Input Text console, Vertical Gauge
- Decorative background elements
