Developing with the Emulator
7. Developing With The Emulator
.Net Micro Framework has a powerful emulator that can be extended or changed to suite
the developer needs. This is very useful as you can do much of the development and
testing before building the actual hardware.
Embedded Master has an emulator available that maps the buttons and LCD dimensions
as provided on the Development System. However, support for the extended features
provided by GHI (PWM, USB Host, ...) are not supported in the emulator. Using any of
these extended features would result in an error in the current emulator.
Let's start the emulator in Visual Studio for a project called “TestProject”. Go to Menu:
Project -> TestProject Properties...
Select Micro Framework tab. In the “Transport:”, select Emulator and the “Device:” should
be the available Embedded Master Emulator.
