Chapter 5: Using the Development Board
Software

5.1 INTRODUCTION TO THE DEVELOPMENT BOARD SOFTWARE

You can communicate with the CS89712 Development Board and control its features using any of
the tools sets listed below. These tool sets are supplied with the kit, along with everything needed
to connect them to the CDB89712. Green Hills Multi 2000 runs on a PC, which is connected to the
CDB89712 via the PC parallel port through the Wiggler, which is connected to the JTAG connector
JP21. The ARM tools run on a PC that is connected to the CDB89712 through a serial cable
connected between the COM port on the PC and the Serial Port 1 connector (J9) on the development
board. BlueCat Tools run on a PC, which is connected to the CDB89712 through a serial cable
connected between the COM port on the PC and the Serial Port 0 (J8) connector on the development
board.
Once you set up any of these environments, you have a complete integrated environment to assess
the features and functions of the CS89712 and the peripherals designed on the board.
