Product Overview CreataLink™2 XT Data Transceiver Installation and Operation2-2 68XXXXXXX-O October 15, 1998General DescriptionThe CreataLinkTM2 XT is a two-way data transceiver supporting the ReFLEX 25 and ReFLEX50 protocols.  Using a RS232 level serial port, the CreataLink2 XT can initiate messagetransmissions into a ReFLEX NBPCS network as well as decode, store and forward messagesreceived from the ReFLEX network to an interconnected host device. CreataLink2 XTperforms all necessary ReFLEX protocol processing to maintain connection to the ReFLEXnetwork, accurately receives and acknowledges messages, and delivers messages in a mannerwhich complies with protocol requirements.  The serial port data interface supports theCommunications Link Protocol (CLP‘).Additionally, CreataLink2 XT supports an 8 bit bi-directional parallel I/O port with thecapability of mapping over-the-air messages directly to the port to effect changes in state onoutput pins and to report changes in state to any input pins. Eight total parallel I/O signalsare present, each configurable as in input or output individually.CreataLink2 XT also will support the ability for 3rd parties to write custom residentapplications to meet their needs; thereby, eliminating the necessity of an external interfaceboard in many solutions.The CreataLink2 XT  software architecture is based upon the FLEXKernel real time operatingsystem with the addition of ReFLEX stack software, a message manager, and the CLP defaultapplication which provides a 3rd party embedded messaging API.  Ownership of the serialport can be passed to a 3rd party application in place of the CLP application via a Motorolaprovided application framework.  The selection of an ARM core based microprocessorprovides 32 bit addressing, 16 bit wide data, state of the art software development, anddebugging support tools and environment using an industry standard  JTAG port.The serial port data interface supports the Communication Linking Protocol (CLP‘). The CLPprotocol serial interface provides commands to direct the actions of the CreataLink datatransceiver to obtain status information about the network, transmit messages, and downloadreceived messages.The CreataLink2 XT hardware is a single PCB marrying RF, digital, and analog circuitry on asingle PCB.   The product will contain no housing and will be sold as an OEM  product. TheCreataLink data transceiver is available in an external antenna configuration, which providesan industry-standard SMA connection for cabling to a remote antenna.The CreataLink data transceiver model and configuration are shown (see Table 2-1).
