adding new app how to?
I am creating a new app like all other present in the openice.
I have created a package and also implemented the IceApplicationProvider interface but my app is not displayed on the main screen.
I am new to this can you guide me about how to solve this problem?

Where to buy the BBB mentioned in docs?
Hello everybody,
I'm a newbie.I want to buy a BBB startkit to study openice.But I cant find a kit which can exactly meet the requirement mentioned in the article:a BBB kit with 'RS232 Cape'\'MircroSD Slot'\'Enclosure'.
Who can help me find an url to order the BBB kit which can directly deployed?

Support for GE CareStation Mechanical Ventilators
Hi MDPnP Team,
I noticed in your introduction video that you have a GE CareStation Ventilator in the lab. However, I don't see this ventilator as one of the supported devices in OpenICE. Do you have any plans to include GE CareStation as one of the supported devices anytime soon?
Thanks.

openICE with Philips Intellivue M50
I would like to understand if the device drivers you have already developed would be compatible with Philips Intellivue MP50, either through the serial or ethernet connections. I understand you can only confirm and maybe support devices you acctually have at the lab, like MP70, but I wonder if in your opinion it should be compatible - the protocol manual is the same- and if it has been tested by anyone in the community.
Thanks

Build x73-idl-ospl-dds failed
I have installed an evaluation-version of VortexOpenSplice (6.6.2p1) from PrismTech. If I try execute task "osplIdlppJava" - following errors are thrown:

Can you help me please?

Running supervisor headlessly
Hi,
I was wondering if the openice supervisor could be run headlessly (without GUI). I've been poking around at it on my own computer and I got as far as
./bin/OpenICE -app ICE_Supervisor -domain 15
To which java gives me an error.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to create command instance org.mdpnp.apps.testapp.IceAppsContainer
It seems java wants some kind of command before we can proceed but there doesn't seem to be any available documentation on commands to use. Was wondering
1. Even if I take this to its terminus can we run the process headlessly?
2. What are the lists of available commands to use?

IntelliVue MX800 simple OpenICE setup
Hi guys,
I am Happy and excited to find OpenICE, and this forum.
I am planning to connect IntelliVue MX800 with OpenICE. So from Docs, i can understand that, no need of BBB for simple connection. Just connect RS232 port on MX800 to OpenICE (via RJ45 -> DB9 -> USB). I can see 2 RS232 port in the MX800.
Which port i should use for serial communication?
Another question is, can i direct connect MX800 to openICE using LAN cable (By connecting the LAN port in MX800 and Ethernet port in Laptop )?

Philips Intellivue MP70 Connection
Sorry to be such a pain, but we are working on several devices in parallel and are getting stuck on all of them right now. We've been trying to connect to a Philips MP70 for several weeks now but to no avail.
The problem is that for some reason openICE doesn't connect and keeps sending association request messages, so we keep receiving what I believe is an association response. As far as I understand, there are multiple revisions of the communication protocol but I'm not quite sure how to find out which version our monitor uses. I was looking through the old topics and saw a picture posted by Jeff where the monitor had a total of 4 ethernet ports, two output and two input. Ours only has two ports - one input and one output (of course, there is also the LAN port, which we don't want to use).
Do you guys know what the problem is or at least where to start looking for it?
Thanks and sorry again!
Rado
P.S. Just so you don't think I'm only trouble, let me say that we are making good progress with the Drager Apollo and are getting ready to start collecting data from it soon, so thanks for that! :)

Adding a new device....How To?
Hi Jeff -
I'm helping a friend of mine who is doing some research using OpenICE. They want to use a medical monitor which is not yet supported. I haven't yet dived into the code, so I was wondering about the architecture for the device adapter serial driver. Is it straight hard coded parsing the input and producing output, or is there a framework for doing things like
- identifying common message types for the same device type
- supplying the message header/trailer framework, and methods to fill in the particulars?
- Also perhaps identifying common workflows (session, login, security, etc) and creating plugins which implement the workflows, or customize them?
Best Regards,
Paul

DDS Interoperability with commercial and open source based systems
I wanted to find out where the focus in regards to the DDS would currently and in the future?
- Will RTI-DDS and Prismtech-DDS be implemented together?
- or one or the other DDS technologies used provided by the above stated vendors?
- Are RTI-DDS, Primstech-DDS and OpenDDS interoperable with each other?
- Does OpenDDS not satisfy all the requirements compared to RTI and Primstech DDS technologies?
- According to OMG specification the DDS is embedded on top of UDP or TCP, is that correct?
- How is DDS different from RTP/RTCP/RTSP and IEC 61850-GOOSE, if we are trying to achieve and implement real-time communication layer?
- Have you guys had any thoughts of looking into Transport Information Collection Protocol (TICP) http://planete.inria.fr/ticp/ on top of IP?

Openice device simulation is not happening with device adapter and supervisor
Hi I also have a similar kind of problem, I have installed latest openice software and running on two windows laptops. When try network simulation from one laptop using device adapter on the other laptop supervisor we can see the simulated devices (Both the laptops are connected to Wi-Fi network).
But when i use one laptop connected to wi-fi and other laptop connected through Ethernet ( Virtual Machine) the device simulation is not happening.
Can any one please suggest me what steps i have to take to make it working.
Thanks,
Phaninder

Confused about the communication between two computers both running openice
I am new to this community.I was doing some experiment in openice.Recently i found an interesting problem.When i ran the newest version openice on two computers in the same network,especially,i ran "ICE_Supervisor" on computer A,and ran a simulated device through "ICE_Device_Interface" on computer B.What i found is that the simulated device did not show in the supervisor in computer A .But i remember it's not the case like this in the older version openice.Does not a supervisor can recognize a device in the same network not only in the local computer? So i got confused and need help. Thank you very much.
