Innovate Motorsports OT-2 SDK - Manual (Page 8)

8
As the outline on the diagram above shows, this SDK covers, generically, how to
communicate with Innovate devices via either our universal USB driver or our network
protocol. This information can be applied to devices besides the OT-1b and OT-2, such as
the LM-2.
In addition to this generic information, this SDK provides information that is specific to
the OT-1b and OT-2. Namely, how to configure those two particular devices (all the
features exposed by LM Programmer, plus a few more) and, perhaps more interestingly,
access to very low OBD-II services for fairly direct interaction with vehicle ECUs
(Electronic Control Units).
Prerequisites
We tried to create the MTS SDK with the application programmer in mind. But, because
of the subjects involved, this SDK presumes some system level programming experience.
A solid understanding of the C programming language will be very helpful in
understanding the examples and explanations.
In individual subjects additional background knowledge can also be very helpful. For
example, a basic understanding of Windows or BSD ‘sockets’ will make the section on
IMS Net much easier to understand. However, we have tried to add some introduction
links to each subject where possible.
