2.3.2 Connect Programming Cable
The programming cable connects the RabbitCore module to the PC running Dynamic C to
download programs and to monitor the RabbitCore module for debugging.
Connect the 10-pin connector of the programming cable labeled
the RCM3000 series module as shown in Figure 4. Be sure to orient the marked (usually
red) edge of the cable towards pin 1 of the connector. (Do not use the
which is used for a normal serial connection.)
NOTE: Be sure to use the programming cable supplied with this Development Kit—the
programming cable has color shrink wrap around the RS-232 converter section located in
the middle of the cable. Programming cables with clear shrink wrap from other Z-World
or Rabbit Semiconductor kits were not designed to work with RCM3000 series modules.

Figure 4. Connect Programming Cable to RCM3000
Connect the other end of the programming cable to a COM port on your PC.
NOTE: Some PCs now come equipped only with a USB port. It may be possible to use an
RS-232/USB converter with the programming cable supplied with the RCM3000 series
Development Kit. Contact Technical Support (see Section 2.5.1) for further assistance.
