HighTec EDV-Systeme products include:
  • Optimizing C/C++ GNU compiler for TriCore, Power Architecture and ARM
  • Eclipse Integrated Development Environment
  • PXROS-HR Real-Time Operating System (with integrated MPU management)
  • Monitoring Tools of PXROS-HR
  • Middleware

The focus of the real-time operating system PXROS is the portability, reliability, safety and security of embedded applications. The characteristics of PXROS-HR are proven more than 25 years in the applications in automation, medical, railway, automative and various industrial fields.

 


Product Overview

Development Platform:

The Platform includes an Eclipse-based integrated Development Environment with managment of project settings and the entire build process for compiler, assembler and linker.

The C/C++ compiler includes:
  • General optimization
  • Language-specific optimization
  • Target-specific optimization
  • Whole program optimization

The products is available for the architectures TriCore, Power Architecture and ARM.

PXROS-HR:

PXROS-HR is an enhanced version of the microkernel real-time operating system PXROS, which supports the Memory Protection Unit (MPU) of modern microcontrollers like TriCore and Power Architecture and ARM Cortex. The management of the MPU is integrated in PXROS-HR.

  • Hardware-based memory protection
  • Safe function integration
  • Debug multiple software modules at runtime
  • Simple certification of applications
  • Protection of software knowhow

Monitoring:

PXview
PXview is a graphic tool which helps developers analyse the communication between tasks, and the time behaviour within the system. In doing so, the scheduling of tasks, transfer of messages and events, and other services provided by the PXROS operating system are visualised.

PXmon
PXmon is a monitor which runs at the target of the application. The user can connect to the terminal and access vital information such as the status of a task and its usage of stack.

PXosci
PXosci visualises data measured within an application in a software oscilloscope

Middleware:

For PXROS-HR different extension modules are available to support:
  • TCP/IP
  • FAT filesystem and NFS-support
  • Different protocols like FTP, PPP etc.
