Although you can install a single module into either the
on the Prototyping Board, all the Prototyping Board features (switches, LEDs, serial port
drivers, etc.) are connected to the
ule in the
MASTER
position.
NOTE: It is important that you line up the pins on headers J4 and J5 of the RCM2200
exactly with the corresponding pins of header sockets J1 and J2 on the Prototyping
Board. The header pins may become bent or damaged if the pin alignment is offset, and
the module will not work. Permanent electrical damage to the module may also result if
a misaligned module is powered up.
Press the module's pins firmly into the Prototyping Board header sockets.
2.1.2 Connect Programming Cable
The programming cable connects the RCM2200 module to the PC running Dynamic C to
download programs and to monitor the RCM2200 for debugging.
Connect the 10-pin connector of the
programming cable labeled
to header J1 on the RCM2200 mod-
ule as shown in Figure 2. Be sure to
orient the marked (usually red) edge
of the cable towards pin 1 of the
connector. (Do not use the
connector, which is used for a nor-
mal serial connection.)
Connect the other end of the pro-
gramming cable to a COM port on
your PC. Make a note of the port to
which you connect the cable, as
Dynamic C needs to have this
parameter configured when it is
installed.
NOTE: COM 1 is the default port used by Dynamic C.
NOTE: Some PCs now come equipped only with a USB port. It may be possible to use
an RS-232/USB converter (Part No. 20-151-0178) with the programming cable sup-
plied with the RCM2200 Development Kit. Note that not all RS-232/USB converters
work with Dynamic C.
