Hi Guys! Sorry I have not yet finished the first draft of the hardware document (what Paolo refers to as the ADD), but, it will be finished this weekend. It is only a draft, but has many, many excellent links to projects/code of interest to us. Here is but one tantilizing tidbit: A complete machine (lathe) using RTlinux, postgresql, etc etc. http://www.linuxjournal.com/node/7662/print Maybe some of these guys listed at the bottom of the list are interested in QScada? Oh, I and I finllay got around to spending a little time with Jovan's document, it looks fine. WE should all bear in mind that as we begin to code and deploy QScada, these high level documents will evolve with the project. James |

Yes they might be interested, but from a user point of view. They might tell us some interesting features to be implemented. Usualy RTLinux and RTAI (https://www.rtai.org/) are used to build embedded linux devices that work in real-time. RTAI has a lot more features and supports more devices. Here is a link with a comparison of them: http://rtportal.upv.es/comparative/rtl_vs_rtai.html I don't think that in this stage we should delve into RTLinux or RTAI. They are used for embedded devices that are used the field devices and controllers. Maybe we can use them in the future as RTUs that will some light version of QScada, drivers for field devices, some small db (because of the limited resources) and a web server. I'm currently working on a document that defines the procecess (reading/writing data, stroing data, reporting, udpating the visual picture) that are part of QScada. I hope I'll finish it by the end of next week. > WE should all bear in mind that as we begin to code >and deploy QScada, these high level documents will evolve with the >project. I agree with you completely. It is crucial to share the ideas. GREETZ, Jovan |

Others such as 'comedi' are more fundamental in nature to QScada. Once I flip it (ADD) over to the group, others would be encourage to comment or edit the docs. As an employee at a company that has developed lots of embedded systems (products) the ones that are the most successful, are the ones that have excellent specifications. The best way to minimize costs (maximize potential) is to have a robust specification *BEFORE* coding begins, in my experience. YMMV. >Usualy RTLinux and RTAI (https://www.rtai.org/) are used to build embedded >linux devices that work in real-time.

We agree. Push RT performance requirements down to the lowest level. I do agree that we do not have to 'delve' into RT issues, in depth, at this time, but, creating a high level document so we can be sufficiently organized that when that (RT) time comes, we have something (a stub) for folks to work from. >Maybe we can use them in the future as RTUs that will some light >version of QScada, drivers for field devices, some small db (because >of the limited resources) and a web server. > > >I'm currently working on a document that defines the procecess >(reading/writing data, stroing data, reporting, udpating the visual >picture) that are part of QScada.

When these 'early docs' are completed, somebody will need to get us little people (like me) organized so we can begin to contribute code. My previous email on which software and which versions will help the group stay compatible, at least in the early efforts. I've picked up a book on Java and starting some simple coding. QT is another area where I could use a good book && examples to get a feel for QT.... Suggestions? >>WE should all bear in mind that as we begin to code >>and deploy QScada, these high level documents will evolve with the >>project. >> >> > >I agree with you completely.

Here is the download link for the best book on QT "C++ GUI programming with QT 4" torrent file http://www.ebookshare.net/2006/07/23/prentice-hall-ptr-c-plus-plus-gui-programming-with-qt-4-jun-2006-ebook-bbl/ If you buy a paper copy you'll get CD with all the examples Another great source is Trolls doc site: http://doc.trolltech.com/ then choose the version that you wanna see, 4.2 is the latest.
