Topfield Application Program

If you are good at programming with C++ language, you can
make a program executable in the digital receiver. We call
this Topfield Application Program (TAP). In making a TAP,
it is recommended to use Diab compiler of Wind River, whose
web site address is http://www.windriver.com. Some vari-

compiler for TAPs. You can get the Application Program In-
