Slim-Link® Server Multi-User, Multi-Task Real-Time Operating System
MicroRTOS™ Version 2.0 Diagram
The Slim-Link® Server operates with MicroRTOS™, Multi-User, Multi-Task Real-Time Operating System. This operating
system permits the Slim-Link Server to support multiple users and to run multiple tasks simultaneously in real-time.
Multiple users can be connected to either serial port or over the ethernet connection to the HTTP server.
MicroRTOS™ includes a preemptive real-time kernel to permit simultaneous support of multiple tasks. Up to 64 tasks
can be managed. The tasks are juggled based on their assigned priority level.
MicroRTOS™ handles network communications through the TCP/IP stack and Ethernet link. Both Ethernet’s datalink
and physical layers are contained within the Slim-Link® Server module. The TCP/IP stack includes the Transport
Control Protocol, Internet Protocol, User Datagram Protocol, Internet Control Message Protocol, and Address Resolution
Protocol. In the future additional protocols will be added to the TCP/IP stack.
Descriptions of the operating system commands appear on the following page. Only the first 3 letters of each command
