Using ADSP-BF538F EZ-KIT Lite

Installation and Session Startup

For correct operation, install the software and hardware in the order presented in the VisualDSP++ Installation Quick Reference Card.

1.Verify that the yellow USB monitor LED (ZLED3, located near the USB connector) is lit. This signifies that the board is communicat- ing properly with the host PC and is ready to run VisualDSP++.

2.If you are running VisualDSP++ for the first time, navigate to the VisualDSP++ environment via the Start –>Programsmenu.

The main window appears. Note that VisualDSP++ does not con- nect to any session. Skip the rest of this step to step 3.

If you have run VisualDSP++ previously, the last opened session appears on the screen. You can override the default behavior and force VisualDSP++ to start a new session by pressing and holding down the Ctrl key while starting VisualDSP++. Do not release the Ctrl key until the Session Wizard appears on the screen. Go to step 4.

3.To connect to a new EZ-KIT Lite session, start Session Wizard by selecting one of the following.

•From the Session menu, New Session.

•From the Session menu, Session List. Then click New Ses- sion from the Session List dialog box.

•From the Session menu, Connect to Target.

4.The Select Processor page of the wizard appears on the screen. Ensure Blackfin is selected in Processor family. In Choose a target processor, select ADSP-BF538F. Click Next.
