* The Anybus module allows the Armadeus board to communicate on 18 differents industrial network such as Profibus, Modbus-TCP/RTU, CANOpen, ...
* The following instructions is relative to Armadeus boards APF51-Dev and APF51 with FPGA. Please ensure you use the trunk version of Armadeus.

==Creation of the FPGA design with POD==

==Kernel configuration==

In your Armadeus directory:
<pre class="host">
  [  ] $ make linux26-menuconfig
</pre>

<pre class="config">
Device Drivers  --->
  [*] Network device support  --->
    <M>   HMS Anybus driver
</pre>

==Loading the modules driver==

* Load the driver generated by POD.
<pre class="apf">
 # modprobe pod_anybus_interface_platform
</pre>

* Load the kernel driver.
<pre class="apf">
 # modprobe anybus_interface
</pre>

* Check if the interface anybus0 is available.
<pre class="apf">
 # ifconfig anybus0
</pre>

* If yes, mount it.
<pre class="apf">
 # ifconfig anybus0 up
</pre>

Check the surface mounted LED on the Anybus module (not the front LEDs). This LED should blink at 1Hz if the module is initialised, and 2Hz if not.
Then, you can use the interface.
