Installation and Session Startup

For correct operation, install the software and hardware in the

order presented in the VisualDSP++ Installation Quick Reference

Card.

1. Verify that the yellow USB monitor LED (ZLED3, located near the

USB connector) is lit. This signifies that the board is communicat-

ing properly with the host PC and is ready to run VisualDSP++.

2. If you are running VisualDSP++ for the first time, navigate to the

VisualDSP++ environment via the Start –>Programs menu.

The main window appears. Note that VisualDSP++ does not con-

nect to any session. Skip the rest of this step to step 3.

If you have run VisualDSP++ previously, the last opened session

appears on the screen. You can override the default behavior and

force VisualDSP++ to start a new session by pressing and holding

down the Ctrl key while starting VisualDSP++. Do not release the

Ctrl key until the Session Wizard appears on the screen. Go to

step 4.

3. To connect to a new EZ-KIT Lite session, start Session Wizard by

selecting one of the following.

• From the Session menu, New Session.

• From the Session menu, Session List. Then click New Ses-

sion from the Session List dialog box.

• From the Session menu, Connect to Target.

4. The Select Processor page of the wizard appears on the screen.

Ensure Blackfin is selected in Processor family. In Choose a target

processor, select ADSP-BF538F. Click Next.
