Getting Started Manual 9
Although you can install a single module into either the MASTER or the SLAVE position
on the Prototyping Board, all the Prototyping Board features (switches, LEDs, serial port
drivers, etc.) are connected to the MASTER position. We recommend you install a single
module in the MASTER position.
NOTE: It is important that you line up the pins on headers J4 and J5 of the RCM2300
exactly with the corresponding pins of headers J1 and J2 on the Prototyping Board. The
header pins may become bent or damaged if the pin alignment is offset, and the module
will not work. Permanent electrical damage to the module may also result if a mis-
aligned module is powered up.
Press the module’s pins firmly into the Prototyping Board header sockets.
2.1.2 Connect Programming Cable
The programming cable connects the RCM2300 module to the PC workstation running
Dynamic C to permit download of programs and monitoring for debugging.
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 (Part No. 540-0070) with the programming cable supplied
with the RCM2300 Development Kit. Note that not all RS-232/USB converters work
with Dynamic C.
Connect the 10-pin connector of the
programming cable labeled PROG
to header J1 on the RabbitCore
RCM2300 module as shown in
Figure 2. Be sure to orient the
marked (usually 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.)
Connect the other end of the pro-
gramming 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.
