ADE_VAS

1
System is designed and developed for Video Audio Switch (VA Switch) based on
Switching devices and Freescale MCU S12XE series and supported with peripherals
as suggested by ADE. Control signals from MCU would control the switching of Mux,
Mixer and Sync devices.

Video audio switch module can be used to route video and audio from multiple
sources to multiple destinations.

Test system module is designed to provide video, audio and control channel signals
to the Video audio switch,capture and display the switched/buffered video, audio and
control signals from the video audio switch.
System Requirement
1.Windows 7 32 bit
2.2 GB RAM
3. 500 GB HDD
4.Capture Card
Software Requirement
1.Microsoft Dot Net framework 4.0
2.AvSDK Windows driver Installer
3.FTDI driver
The Video-Audio Switch shall be interfaced with AED using RS422 interface. For
communication between VA switch and AED, Packet oriented communication protocol will
be used. In this configuration input connection is fixed, only output connection is fixed;
only output connection will be changed.

The communication interface requirement will be as follows:

Data Packet Rate: 12.5 Hz

Channel attribute: Start bit: 1, Data bit: 8, Stop bit: 1, Parity bit: Nil

Baud Rate: 9600

ADE_VAS Graphical User Interface would provide video, audio and control channel
signals to the video and audio switch, capture and display the switched/buffered video,
audio and control signals from the video, audio switch. Based on the user input from an
application, Firmware running on test system can send the configuration information
which specifies selection of the cross bar switch, multipliers on video/audio switch.
ADE_VAS GUI functionality is divided into two major parts:

1. Capture
2. Configuration

 As soon as Microcontroller power on ,startup code get start executing and it will call the Main function.
 The main Function will initialized the local variable and call the IsSimplePrmCRCCheckSumOK()
functions.
 This functions will start the calculations of Firmware CRC by calling _Checksum_CheckAreaCRC32()
functions is CRC32 checksum of an aera and store the value in firmware_crc .This is global variable.
 ...

 After getting Firmware_crc value ,We will do mcu configuration in which we will Initialized all the
PORT and PLL(Clock) settings.
 we will Initialized all the peripheral like IIC ,SPI, UART and interrupt will be enabled and timer
function.
 ...

 We are receiving data through UART RS422 and storing in the receiving buffer and after validating
the data, we copying this data to main buffer.
 After every 160ms we look for new data is present or not.If it is there then it wil update the switches
accordingly .All audio ,video switches are updated and verified.To updates switches we will use
different protocol like IIC,SPI.Video conifig is communication based on SPI and audio uplink is
GPIO control and downlink is done with IIC protcol.

 In Configuration, First GUI will check how many serial ports are connected to PC. If one port
gets connect, It will open that port as Primary Port and starts sending packets with every 160
milliseconds time interval.
 If two ports are connected then it will open port1 as first and send a default packet, if it gets
reply as 16 bytes then check port status from MCU and open both the ports as primary &
secondary .
 Else if 16 bytes is not recieved by port1 then port1 will be close and port2 will open and send
packet.If it gets 16 bytes then check for primary & secondary and open ports according to
that.
 Else after 160 miliseconds again port configuaration will call and do same operation as
above.
 After getting Primary Port and Secondary Port,communication will start and update the
controls.(Built_in_Test,Port status, Packets count etc.) with every 160 milliseconds.
