Rabbit 2000 Development Kit
1.2 Development Software
The BL1810 Jackrabbit board in the Development Kit uses the Dynamic C development
environment for rapid creation and debugging of runtime applications. Dynamic C pro-
vides a complete development environment with integrated editor, compiler and source-
level debugger. It interfaces directly with the target system, eliminating the need for com-
plex and unreliable in-circuit emulators.
Dynamic C must be installed on a Windows workstation with at least one free serial USB
or COM port for communication with the target system. See Chapter 2., “Detailed Instal-
lation Instructions,” for complete information on installing Dynamic C.
1.3 How to Use This Manual
This Getting Started manual is intended to give users a quick but solid start with the
Rabbit 2000 microprocessor. It does not contain detailed information on the hardware
capabilities or the Dynamic C development environment. Most users will want more
detailed information on some or all of these topics in order to put the Rabbit 2000
microprocessor to effective use.
1.3.1 Additional Product Information
Detailed information about the BL1810 Jackrabbit board will be found in the Jackrabbit
(BL1800) User’s Manual, provided on the accompanying CD-ROM in both HTML and
Adobe PDF format.
TIP: We recommend that anyone not thoroughly familiar with Z-World embedded con-
trol systems at least read through the rest of this manual to gain the necessary familiar-
ity to make use of the more advanced information.
1.3.2 Additional Reference Information
In addition to the product-specific information contained in the Jackrabbit (BL1800)
User’s Manual, several 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 RCM3200 module:
