Testing Your Installation of the Command Converter
Motorola Testing Your Hardware Installation 2-3
2.1 Testing Your Installation of the Command Converter
If you have installed these Suite56 tools:
• a hardware debugger, such as the
ads56300 or gds56300,
• a host-bus interface board, such as the 16-bit ISA bus for PC-compatible and
Hewlett-Packard workstations or the SBus for Sun and Sparc workstations,
• corresponding software device drivers, and
• the command converter,
to communicate with a target device, then we recommend that you perform either one the
following tests to determine whether your installation of the command converter was
successful.
2.1.1 Testing through the Graphic User Interface
To test your installation of the command converter through the graphic user interface to
your Suite56 tools, follow these steps:
1. Start the hardware debugger. If you are working on a PC-compatible machine
running Windows NT, for example, there are several different ways to start a
hardware debugger, such as
gds56300.
— From your NT Start menu, select Programs, and then click on the item
Motorola DSP. (If the debugger you want to start does not appear as an item
among the Programs in your Start menu, then you may want to re-install your
debugger from your Motorola Suite56 Toolkit CD-ROM.)
— From your NT Start menu, select Run. When the command window opens,
type the command in Example 2-1.
— If you have created a shortcut icon of the Suite56 hardware debugger on your
desktop, then of course you simply click on that icon.
2. In the debugger, type the commands in Example 2-2 on page 2-4.
