This chapter describes how to set up and connect the RCM3209 and
the Prototyping Board included in the RCM3200 Development Kit.
NOTE: This chapter (and this manual) assume that you have a Development Kit. If you
purchased an RCM3200 series RabbitCore module by itself, you will have to adapt the
information in this chapter and elsewhere to your test and development setup.

2.1 Install Dynamic C

To develop and debug programs for an RCM3200 series RabbitCore module (and for all
other Rabbit hardware), you must install and use Dynamic C.
If you have not yet installed Dynamic C, do so now by inserting the Dynamic C CD from
the Development Kit in your PC's CD-ROM drive. If autorun is enabled, the CD installa-
tion will begin automatically.
If autorun is disabled or the installation otherwise does not start, use the Windows
menu or Windows Disk Explorer to launch
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. Select any available USB port for Dynamic C's use.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"
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 the optional Dynamic C Rabbit Embedded Security Pack, install it
after installing Dynamic C. You must install the Rabbit Embedded Security Pack in the
same directory where Dynamic C was installed.
