14 Running a Sample Application

Now that you have installed Platform Manager to your host platform and copied relevant binaries (for this example at least SS1BTPM and LinuxSPPM should be copied) and init-scripts to your target, let's demonstrate running a Platform Manager application. The following should be done on the target (using USB or Ethernet connection):

# cd /home/root/BluetopiaPM/bin
# ./SS1BTPM &
# ./LinuxSPPM

You should now see LinuxSPPM's menu displayed in the terminal. Now let's try to initialize the BluetopiaPM Server in LinuxSPPM and turn on the Bluetooth Controller.

SPPM>Initialize 1
SPPM>SetDevicePower 1

If all went well you should see a "Device Powered On" message in the terminal. Congratulations, you have just run your first Platform Manager application! For more detailed information on using the LinuxSPPM Demo and for other Demo Guides,see the Bluetopia Platform Manager Demo Guide (located where?). The basics of Bluetopia Platform Manager's sample applications are discussed in the next section.
