2.1 Step 1 — Install Dynamic C
To develop and debug programs for the RCM3700 (and for all other Rabbit hardware), you
must install and use Dynamic C.
If you have not yet installed Dynamic C version 8.11 (or a later version), do so now by
inserting the Dynamic C CD from the RCM3700 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 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 icons on your PC desktop.
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.
