Appendix E provides additional theoretical information for the Rabbit

2000

™

 microprocessor when using the 

DIAG

 and 

PROG

 connectors on

the programming cable. The 

PROG

 connector is used only when the

programming cable is attached to the programming connector (header

J5) while a new application is being developed. Otherwise, the 

DIAG

connector on the programming cable allows the programming cable to

be used as an RS-232 to CMOS level converter for serial communica-

tion, which is appropriate for monitoring or debugging a RabbitCore

system while it is running.
