ROGRAMS
To develop and debug programs for the RCM3600 (and for all
other Z-World and Rabbit Semiconductor hardware), you must
install and use Dynamic C.
3.1 Introduction
To help familiarize you with the RCM3600 modules, Dynamic C includes several sample
programs. Loading, executing and studying these programs will give you a solid hands-on
overview of the RCM3600’s capabilities, as well as a quick start with Dynamic C as an
application development tool.
NOTE:
The sample programs assume that you have at least an elementary grasp of the C
programming language. If you do not, see the introductory pages of the
Dynamic C
User’s Manual
for a suggested reading list.
In order to run the sample programs discussed in this chapter and elsewhere in this manual,
1. Your RCM3600 must be plugged in to the Prototyping Board as described in Chapter 2,
2. Dynamic C must be installed and running on your PC.
3. The programming cable must connect the programming header (J2) on the RCM3600
to your PC.
4. Power must be applied to the RCM3600 through the Prototyping Board.
Refer to Chapter 2, “Getting Started,” if you need further information on these steps.
To run a sample program, open it with the
File
menu, then compile and run it by pressing
F9
or by selecting
Run
in the
Run
menu. The RCM3600 must be in Program Mode (see
Figure 8) and must be connected to a PC using the programming cable.
Complete information on Dynamic C is provided in the
Dynamic C User’s Manual
