User`s manual

4 RabbitCore RCM2300
1.4 How to Use This Manual
This user’s manual is intended to give users detailed information on the RCM2300 mod-
ule. It does not contain detailed information on the Dynamic C development environment.
Most users will want more detailed information on some or all of these topics in order to
put the RCM2300 module to effective use.
1.4.1 Additional Reference Information
In addition to the product-specific information contained in the RabbitCore RCM2300
User’s Manual (this manual), two higher level reference manuals are provided in HTML
and PDF form on the accompanying CD-ROM. Advanced users will find these references
valuable in developing systems based on the RCM2300 modules:
• Dynamic C User’s Manual
• Dynamic C Function Reference Manual
• Rabbit 2000 Microprocessor User’s Manual
1.4.2 Using Online Documentation
We provide the bulk of our user and reference documentation in two electronic formats,
HTML and Adobe PDF. We do this for several reasons.
We believe that providing all users with our complete library of product and reference
manuals is a useful convenience. However, printed manuals are expensive to print, stock,
and ship. Rather than include and charge for manuals that every user may not want, or pro-
vide only product-specific manuals, we choose to provide our complete documentation
and reference library in electronic form with every Development Kit and with our
Dynamic C development environment.
NOTE: The most current version of Adobe Acrobat Reader can always be downloaded
from Adobe’s Web site at http://www.adobe.com. We recommend that you use ver-
sion 4.0 or later.
Providing this documentation in electronic form saves an enormous amount of paper by
not printing copies of manuals that users don’t need. It reduces the number of outdated
manuals we have to discard from stock as well, and it makes providing a complete library
of manuals an almost cost-free option. For one-time or infrequent reference, electronic
documents are more convenient than printed ones.
1.4.2.1 Finding Online Documents
The online documentation is installed along with Dynamic C, and an icon for the docu-
mentation menu is placed on the workstation’s desktop. Double-click this icon to reach the
menu. If the icon is missing, use your browser to find and load default.htm in the docs
folder, found in the Dynamic C installation folder.
The latest versions of all documents are always available for free, unregistered download
from our Web sites as well.
