Description |
QNX is a POSIX-compatible microkernel-based real-time operating system developed by QNX Systems of Canada. It is widely used in industrial control, media center, and other embedded applications which require real-time performance. QNX is a very small footprint operating system and can be configured to use a very small amount of disk space and memory compared to other embedded PC operating systems. The QNX microkernel delivers excellent real-time performance through a user-configurable priority system. QNX is based on the POSIX programming API and uses GNU development tools.
Diamond Systems' QNX Software Development Kits provide a convenient way to evaluate the QNX real-time operating system running on one of Diamond Systems' single board computers (SBCs). The kit provides you with a pre-built and ready-to-use QNX Neutrino run-time system with demo programs for the data acquisition circuitry on the SBC. The QNX evaluation image is designed specifically to run on a solid-state IDE flashdisk on the Diamond SBC. It enables you to build a completely solid-state QNX-powered embedded computer that boots quickly with all the device drivers pre-configured and ready to use.
Diamond's QNX evaluation images are based on QNX Neutrino version 6.4.0. They incorporate several features that make it ideal for use with our SBCs.
Each supported SBC has its own development kit which is designed to work seamlessly with the embedded computer and its hardware components.
Each QNX evaluation image includes drivers for:
USB and RS-232 serial ports, all drivers pre-configured and installed on boot up
PS/2 Mouse and Keyboard
IDE storage devices
Ethernet support with local-area network installed
DHCP, SSH, SCP, FTP
Univeral Driver 6.02 for data acquisition with demo programs for analog and digital I/O
The evaluation image is pre-loaded on a flashdisk that you install on your SBC and power on for immediate operation.
A backup image is available on the Kit's CD along with all necessary documentation.

Kit Contents |
Each QNX Software Development Kit includes:
A QNX 6.4 Software Development Kit CD for the target single board computer
A flashdisk with a bootable QNX evaluation image for the target single board computer
An Installation Guide with easy-to-follow instructions to get started
A QNX Momentics Box Card
The QNX Momentics Box Card provides you with a link to download an evaluation version of the Momentics software development tools, including the compiler, debugger and code editor. These tools are installed on the desktop of your Windows PC. The evaluation Momentics development tools are full-featured but are not authorized for development of deployable applications. The full commercial version of Momentics must be purchased separately from QNX Systems before real product development begins.
QNX Licensing Considerations
Using this QNX Software Development Kit, you can boot and begin to work with a QNX evaluation run-time image. Using the QNX Momentics Box Card, you can download an evaluation verion of the Momentics software development tools.
Both the image and downloadable development tools are for evaluation purposes only. For deployment, a purchased, licensed toolkit must be used to create a licensed image. The evaluation toolkit and image cannot be converted to a licensed product.
The evaluation toolkit should be used to gain familiarity with the software, as work done using the evaluation toolkit is not useable and transferable for creating a "production-ready" system image.
It is the customer's responsiblity to obtain a fully licensed QNX Momentics development toolkit, and all associated QNX Neutrino runtime licenses.
