Download the file and copy it to a directory of yours (e.g., C:\Users\MyUsername\FRI under Windows or /home/MyUsername/FRI under Linux). After unzipping the compressed file with a tool (e.g., 7-Zip or gzip), you need to replace the three files friComm.h, friudp.h, and friudp.cpp with the original files you received from KUKA (cf. List of Files). Afterwards you create a new project in you QNX Momentics IDE and specify the absolute path of the directory

FRILibrary

as the location of your project. In the directory QNX, you can find corresponding makefiles. In the file Makefile.global, you need adapt the variable ROOT_DIR to the absolute path of the directory FRILibrary. Now, you can rebuild your the entire project in your QNX Momentics development environment to check whether all files compile correctly on your system. If so, you may continue with Step 4 of the Quick Start Manual. The class FastResearchInterface represents the user API.

Please note that you will need to adapt the path of the initialization file (e.g., 980039-FRI-Driver.init) before you can establish a connection form the remote host to the KRC control unit.
