Chapter 1. Precautions for Safety In both the user's manual and on the product itself, several icons are used to insure proper handling of this product and also to prevent injuries to you or other persons, or damage to your properties. This chapter describes the precautions which should be taken in order to use this product safely and properly.
Warning for Installation: • Do not set this product in water or areas of high humidity. Make sure that the main unit does not get wet. Spilling water or some other liquid into the main unit can cause an unrepairable damage. Warnings for Use Environment: •...
Note on Malfunctions in the PC4701 System: • If the emulator malfunctions because of interference like external noise, do the following to remedy the trouble. (1) Press the RESET button on the emulator front panel. (2) If normal operation is not restored after step (1), shut OFF power to the emulator once and then reactivate it.
Notes on the Target System: • As pin Vcc of emulator is connected to the target system to observe the voltage of the target system, the target system is not powered by the emulator. Therefore design your system so that the target system is powered separately.
Note on Differences between the Actual MCU and Emulator: • Emulator operation differs from mask MCU operation as listed below. (1) Reset condition (2) Power voltage When using the emulator, it is not possible to use with the range of 4.15 to 4.5 V. (3) Initial values of internal resources data at power-on (3) Internal memory (ROM and RAM) capacities, etc.
Notes on the Watchdog Function: • The MCU's watchdog timer can be used only while a program is being executed. To use it otherwise, disable the watchdog timer. • If the reset circuit of the target system has a watchdog timer, disable it when using the emulator. Note on DMA Transfer: •...
Note on Reading MCU Internal Resources: • When the M37641T2-RPD-E is configured with the emulator debugger, the following results occur when reading MCU internal resources (SFR and internal RAM area). In both cases, data is not displayed correctly, but internal data is not affected at all. (1) Real-time tracing Data values in the MCU internal resource read cycle are not displayed correctly.
Note on Stack Area: • With this product, a maximum 3 bytes of the user stack is consumed as work area. Note on Quitting the Emulator Debugger: • To restart the emulator debugger, always shut power to the emulator module off once and then on again.

3.2 Replacing the Evaluation MCU It is necessary to replace the evaluation MCU according to the MCU you use. [MCU Group] 7641 Group: 7643 Group: To debug the 7643 Group, it is necessary to replace the evaluation MCU to the included M37643M8- XXXFS.
3.3 Switch Settings Figure 3.3 shows the positions of the switches and Table 3.1 shows each switch setting. Figure 3.3 Positions of the switches and their factory-settings * Switches SW3 to SW6 have not been mounted. These switches cannot be used. * For the circuit configuration of the switches, refer to "5.2 Connection Diagrams"...

3.4 Connecting USB-related Signals This section explains emulation pod specifications for each USB-related pin. (1) Pins D+ and D- In the factory-setting, electrical characteristics differ from those of the actual MCU because of the flexible cable between the emulation MCU and target system. If there are problems with electrical characteristics because of the flexible cable, the USB connector on the emulation pod can be used.
(2) Pin Ext. Cap In the factory-setting, the emulation pod processes the pin and does not connect it to the target system. • When the emulation pod processes the pin (factory-setting) Set SW8 of the emulation pod to INT side. The connection in the emulation pod is shown in Figure 3.6 below.
(3) Pins LPF, AVss and AVcc These pins are processed in the emulation pod, and not connected to the target system. The connection in the emulation pod is shown in Figure 3.9 below. Figure 3.9 Connecting pins LPF, AVss and AVcc Note on Connecting USB-related Pins: 3.5 Selecting Clock Supply There are two ways to supply a clock to the MCU, using the oscillator circuit in the emulation pod...
(1) Using the Oscillator Circuit on the Target System When you turn on the power supply, the internal clock of the emulation pod is selected to supply the clock to the MCU. To use the external clock on the target system, change the clock by the CLK command of the emulator debugger.
(2) Changing the Oscillator Circuit in the Emulation Pod Oscillator circuit boards for 24 MHz (for XIN) and 32.768 kHz (for XCIN) are mounted in this product. To use the emulation pod at a frequency other than 24 MHz or 32.768 kHz, build the desired oscillator circuit on the included oscillator circuit board OSC-2 (bare board) and replace the board installed in the emulation pod when shipped from the factory.
(3) Replacing the Oscillator Circuit Boards Figure 3.14 shows how to replace the oscillator circuit boards. For the position of the oscillator circuit board, see "Figure 2.2 Internal view of the emulation pod" (page 21). Figure 3.14 Replacing the oscillator circuit boards (1) Unscrew the screw connecting the oscillator circuit board.
3.6 Connecting the PC4701 and Emulation Pod To connect the emulation pod to the PC4701, use 120-pin flexible cable FLX120-RPD included with this product package. Connect the PC4701 side connector of the FLX120-RPD to the cable connector of the PC4701, then secure with the two screws. (1) Connecting the Cable to the PC4701 Figure 3.15 shows how to connect the PC4701 and FLX120-RPD.
(2) Connecting the Cable to the Emulation Pod Figure 3.16 shows how to connect the FLX120-RPD and the emulation pod. Figure 3.16 Connecting the emulation pod and FLX120-RPD Note on Connecting the Cable: • Always shut OFF power before connecting the cable. Otherwise internal circuits can be destroyed.
