RL78/G14 RDK Quick Start Guide Thank you for your interest in the Renesas Demonstration Kit for the RL78/G14 MCU, Version 2.1. Before you get started please first familiarize yourself with this document. You can also view and print its electronic copy in the following location on the DVD: “CD DRIVE\QSG\ RL78G14_RDK_V2 1_QSG .pdf”.
EMO FOR NTRODUCTION The Renesas RL78/G14 RDK offers a quick and easy way to demonstrate, evaluate and develop embedded applications based on the RL78/G14 MCU and the GainSpan low-power wireless module and embedded platform software for Wi-Fi networks. The Wi-Fi module firmware runs an embedded Serial-to-Wi-Fi application that includes a wireless connection and a secure network stack to provide wireless connection.
The same Demo can be run using an iPhone (or Android*) native application. Download the GainSpan/Renesas iPhone application from the Apple iTunes store. Search for “Renesas”. Connect the iPhone Wi-Fi to the RDK SSID displayed on the LCD and then launch the application downloaded in previous step.
ONNECTIVITY EMOS The RL78/G14 RDK comes with two Cloud Connectivity demos provided by Renesas’ partners, Exosite and BugLabs. These demos turn the RDK into a real-time internet enabled device. Once the board is registered, the device will automatically connect to the cloud platform and share its peripherals using a standardized API.
Absolutely no programming is required: simply drag and drop the graphic components into place, and watch them go. μC/Probe works with all Renesas embedded processors and requires communication via J‐Link, TCP/IP, RS‐232, Wi-Fi or Proxies such as the IAR Systems Embedded Workbench or the Eclipse Plugin for μC/Probe.
Insert the companion DVD into the DVD drive and proceed with the automatic installation. If the installer doesn’t start automatically, look for the “Autorun.exe” file and launch this file manually. If you don’t have a copy of the DVD or want the latest version, please visit the Renesas web site at: http://www.renesas.com/RDKRL78G14 and download the latest installation package (ZIP file).
