To launch the terminal program, you would press <Open> which opens a new terminal window. This is where you would
type on the PC keyboard to communicate with the Chameleon AVR and run the demos or do serial terminal experiments.
15.2.3.1 Running the Arduino Tool
We are all ready to go, let’s do a final checklist before we launch the tool:
1. You have the USB cable plugged into the PC and you have installed the FTDI serial drivers if needed.
2. You have a 9V DC power supply plugged into the Chameleon (optional).
3. You have moved the serial select switch into the DOWN position, so the USB serial port is connected to the AVR chip
(not the Propeller).
4. You have the VGA and NTSC cables connected to the Chameleon as well as a mouse (optional).
Finally, we are ready to launch the Arduino tool itself. If you take a look back in the installation directory where you
decompressed the Arduino ZIP file (Figure 15.44) you will see an icon ARDUINO.EXE, go ahead and double click it. You
should see the splash screen load shown in Figure 15.52.

Then finally, the application will load and will look something like that shown in Figure 15.53.
