<h3><a name="description"></a>Product description</h3>

<p>The <b>HTI Connection</b> service provides a communication interface between
Carbide.c++ and an emulator/device. HTI Connection manages the connection
between Carbide.c++ and an emulator/device by starting the HTI Datagateway and
shows generated log in the <b>HTI Connection</b> view. The HTI Connection view
shows information of events and errors from Datagateway.exe. The connection
parameters can be modified from HTI Preferences.</p>

<p>HTI Connection opens when a plug-in is started, that is, when another
plug-in starts using Harmonized Test Interface (HTI) service. You can open the
HTI Connection also by selecting <b>Carbide</b> &gt; <b>HTI Connection.</b></p>

<h3><a name="compissues"></a>Compatibility issues</h3>
<ul>
  <li>N/A</li>
</ul>

<h3><a name="issues"></a>Known issues</h3>
<ul>
  <li>If Carbide crashes when HTI Connection is active, it is possible that the
    datagateway.exe continues running in background. In this case, the
    datagateway.exe process needs to be ended from Task Manager.</li>
  <li>There is a known issue with serial connection in the emulator
    environment. Virtual com ports are transferring data too fast, and as a
    result some data is lost. In most cases this can be fixed by increasing the
    <code>SendDelay</code> value in <b>HtiSerialComm.cfg</b>
    (<i>{EPOCROOT}\epoc32\winscw\c\</i>). It has been tested with
    <code>SendDelay=5</code>.</li>
</ul>
