Getting Started, Install Dynamic C | Digi RCM4000 specs

2. GETTING STARTED

This chapter describes the RCM4000 hardware in more detail, and explains how to set up and use the accompanying Prototyping Board.

NOTE: This chapter (and this manual) assume that you have the RCM4000 Development Kit. If you purchased an RCM4000 module by itself, you will have to adapt the infor- mation in this chapter and elsewhere to your test and development setup.

2.1 Install Dynamic C

To develop and debug programs for the RCM4000 (and for all other Rabbit Semiconductor hardware), you must install and use Dynamic C.

If you have not yet installed Dynamic C version 10.03 (or a later version), do so now by inserting the Dynamic C CD from the RCM4000 Development Kit in your PC’s CD-ROM drive. If autorun is enabled, the CD installation will begin automatically.

If autorun is disabled or the installation does not start, use the Windows Start Run menu or Windows Disk Explorer to launch setup.exe from the root folder of the CD-ROM.

The installation program will guide you through the installation process. Most steps of the process are self-explanatory.

Dynamic C uses a COM (serial) port to communicate with the target development system. The installation allows you to choose the COM port that will be used. The default selec- tion is COM1. You may select any available port for Dynamic C’s use. If you are not cer- tain which port is available, select COM1. This selection can be changed later within Dynamic C.

NOTE: The installation utility does not check the selected COM port in any way. Speci- fying a port in use by another device (mouse, modem, etc.) may lead to a message such as "could not open serial port" when Dynamic C is started.

Once your installation is complete, you will have up to three new icons on your PC desk- top. One icon is for Dynamic C, one opens the documentation menu, and the third is for the Rabbit Field Utility, a tool used to download precompiled software to a target system.

If you have purchased any of the optional Dynamic C modules, install them after installing Dynamic C. The modules may be installed in any order. You must install the modules in the same directory where Dynamic C was installed.
