2.3.2 Connect Programming Cable
The programming cable connects the RCM2100 module to the PC running Dynamic C, to
download programs and to monitor the RCM2100 for debugging.
Connect the 10-pin connector of the programming cable labeled PROG to header J5 on
the RCM2100 module as shown in Figure 6 below. Be sure to orient the red edge of the
cable towards pin 1 of the connector. (Do not use the DIAG connector, which is used for a
normal serial connection.)

NOTE: The stripe on the cable is towards pin 1 of the header J5.
Connect the other end of the programming cable to a COM port on your PC. Make a note
of the port to which you connect the cable, as Dynamic C needs to have this parameter
configured when it is installed.
NOTE: COM 1 is the default port used by Dynamic C.
NOTE: Some PCs now come equipped only with a USB port. It may be possible to use
an RS-232/USB converter with the programming cable supplied with your RCM2100
module. An RS-232/USB converter is available through the Z-World Web store.
