The SPice10206 is no longer on sale for new designs. Please contact us if you have an existing design that uses this product.

You will find that getting an application going with the SPice10206/SitePlayer combination is straightforward, providing you adopt the roadmap set out in the TSP overview and backgrounder document. In particular, you need to get a very firm grasp on the Internet related aspects of the SitePlayer, such as:

  • Web page design and creation.
  • SitePlayer’s system of configuration files and data files
  • IP addressing schemes, port numbers and MAC addresses.
  • Configuring routers, switches, firewalls and broadband modems.

These are all matters covered in the SitePlayer documentation, which you can download from the SitePlayer website, and elsewhere. SPLat Controls cannot provide support in these matters. We strongly recommend that you make yourself thoroughly familiar with the SitePlayer in its own developer kit before attempting to use it with the SPLat. Software provided with the SitePlayer developer kit includes utilities for setting its IP address, communicating with it over your LAN and all manner of other useful things.

Do not perform TSP transfers to the SitePlayer during Ethernet downloading of new firmware, or web pages. If you must perform this action in the field, you need to have some way of ensuring that TSP activity stops during the updates. This could include providing a special mode in the SPLat that does no TSP transfers, loading a null program into the SPLat or transferring the SitePlayer module to a SitePlayer developer kit during the download.
