Dexter runs Linux on it's microzed board and automatically starts a program called DexRun.c (used to be iotest.c)

DexRun.c is the interface between the ethernet port and the FPGA which controls Dexters hardware (motors, encoders, etc...). It opens a socket and accept commands from DDE and sends data back. See DexRun-DDE-communications for more detail.

DexRun.c also provides a few local functions. For example, onboard motion planning is being developed.
