xAP-485 Bridge Software

[Paul Barrett]

Hi

Now that I have my xAP-485 Connector which connects to a PC Serial port and
converts the messages to RS485 for the PIC nodes to process. I am looking
to
make the xAPplication (using Stuart's xAPFramework) to bridge the two
networks.

Could you please give me some advise as to how you would go about
implementing this. Also should I be incrementing the hop value in the
header
of the messages been passed through and how are the UID's handled for the
two networks.

I was looking to get a basic bridge built and then at a later stage add
filtering so that I could limit the amount of traffic on the low spec
network.

I have a working knowledge of Visual Basic and have just started working
with the .NET Framework.

Any Ideas / Commands / Suggestions / etc let me know

Thanks
Paul
