Providing Your Manufacturing Requirements
In order to provide the appropriate SMAP software to each Manufacturer, Devicescape Networks needs the manufacturer's board (2 or more), a set of board port information, and a detailed description of the manufacturer's production and test environment. The requirements of the manufacturer will determine how the SMAP binaries are programmed at Devicescape.
Use the "Manufacturing Requirements" Worksheet
The following sections describe the types of information Manufacturers should send to Devicescape about the manufacturing volume production and test environment. A downloadable worksheet is provided for your use. Please fill in the worksheet with the details of your manufacturing process and send it to your Devicescape Program Management or Engineering contact.
