M-Station Baseboard
10.1 Starting and Exiting the MSTTERM Program
Before using the MSTTERM program, make sure that JP8 and JP9 on the M-Station are set for UART
communication: TXDSO-UTXD on JP8 and RXDSI-URXD on JP9. Click the MSTTERM program
shortcut in the Start menu to initialize the program and open the MST Terminal window, which displays
any characters received by the M-Station USB interface. There is no power cycling or reset of the
micro-board upon starting, and the default rate for operation is 9600 baud.
When you exit MSTTERM, the program resets the micro-board by turning V
power off, restoring it,
DD
and then releasing the RESET line. The user program then executes, the same as when you exit the
FP4MST program.
10.2 MST Terminal Window
The MST Terminal window below shows example text to demonstrate communication with a possible
user program in a micro-board or target system. The actual interaction would depend on the program
written for such a board. The window consists of a menu bar at the top, a status bar at the bottom, and
a scrolling text window in between. The window can be resized according to your preference.
