2.2.3 Step 3 — Connect USB Cable
The USB cable connects the RCM5700/RCM6700 to the PC running Dynamic C to download
programs and to monitor the MiniCore module during debugging. It also supplies power to the
Interface Board and the MiniCore via the USB interface.
Connect the USB cable between USB connector J5 on the Interface Board and your PC as shown
in Figure 2-4. Note that the USB cable connectors are different at either end, so there is only one
way to connect them between the PC and the Interface Board.
Your PC should recognize the new USB hardware, and the LEDs next to the USB connector on
the Interface Board will flash — if you get an error message, you will have to install USB drivers.
Drivers for Windows XP are available in the Dynamic C
folder — double-click
Cable\WinXP_2K
other operating systems are available online at www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm.
The green power LED on the Interface Board should light up when you connect the USB cable.
The MiniCore and the Interface Board are now ready to be used.
NOTE: A RESET button is provided on the Interface Board above the Ethernet jack to allow a
hardware reset without disconnecting power.
NOTE: Pins 1–2 on header JP1 on the Interface Board must be jumpered to download and debug
applications and sample programs with Dynamic C running. Pins 1–2 should be left
unjumpered to run an program already loaded in flash memory.
CAUTION: Do not jumper pins 1–3 on header JP1 on the Interface Board.
