6 Software Installation
WinVCC4 is a Windows application that uses the PC parallel port to emulate I2C, providing access to each device on the I2C bus. WinVCC4 makes use of CMD files, a text editable file that allows preset video setups to be programmed easily.
This feature allows the user to easily set multiple I2C registers with the press of a button. WinVCC4 also has “Property Sheets” for the TVP5160 which allows the user to control the I2C registers with a GUI.
All necessary software for the TVP5160EVM is provided on the enclosed CD. The following provides the steps required to install WinVCC4:
1.Insert the provided TVP5160EVM CD.
2.Install Port95NT.exe. This is the parallel port driver used by WinVCC4. This driver must be installed and the PC must be rebooted before WinVCC4 will operate correctly.
3.Install Setup.exe. Click Next at all prompts and click Finish to complete the installation process. This will install WinVCC4 onto the PC. No reboot is required.
4.Run WinVCC4.exe
