2.1 Install Dynamic C
To develop and debug programs for PowerCore FLEX modules (and for all other and
Rabbit Semiconductor hardware), you must install and use Dynamic C.
If you have not yet installed Dynamic C version 9.20 (or a later version), do so now by
inserting the Dynamic C CD from the Tool 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 otherwise does not start, use the Windows
Start | Run
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.
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.
User’s Manual
This chapter explains how to set up and use a PowerCore module
with a PowerCore Prototyping Board.
NOTE: It is assumed that you have a Tool Kit. If you purchased a PowerCore FLEX
NOTE: The installation utility does not check the selected COM port in any way. Speci-
module by itself, you will have to adapt the information in this chapter and elsewhere to
your test and development setup.
fying a port in use by another device (mouse, modem, etc.) may lead to a message such
as
menu or Windows Disk Explorer to launch
"could not open serial port"
