Bridging

[Paul Barrett]

Hi All

As I was working on my xAP-485 Bridge and Serial library I found that I
couldn't test it as there was no traffic on the serial bus.
So I have now made my first xAP-485 node which is a basic 1 input, 1 output
module running on a PIC12F629 which implements most of the BSC.

Now that I have traffic on my serial network I through together a quick
bridge xAPp which repeats the messages from one network to the other.

My problem now is that messages received from the serial network and
repeated on the Ethernet then get received by the bridge and repeated again
onto the serial network.

Stuart is there a way within your framework to determine if a message was
previously received from the serial interface and therfore not retransmit
it.

If this dosn't make any sense let me know and I'll try to clarify what I
getting at.
Any suggestions welcome

Thanks
Paul
