1. Getting Started Manual 3 1 3 3 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 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 create a new desktop icon that points to 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 site as well Printing2. Getting Started Manual 11 2 4 Where Do I Go From Here We recommend that you proceed to the next chapter and install Dynamic C if you do not already have it installed then run the first sample program to verify that the RCM2300 and the Prototyping Board are set up and functioning correctly If everything appears to be working we recommend the following sequence of action 1 Run all of the sample programs described in Section 3 5 to get a basic familiarity with Dynamic C and the RCM2300 s capabilities 2 For further development refer to the RabbitCore RCM2300 User s Manual for details of the RCM2300 s hardware and software components A documentation icon should have been installed on your workstation s desktop click on it to reach the documentation menu You can create a new desktop icon that points to default htm in the docs folder in the Dynamic C installation folder 3 For advanced development topics refer to the Dynamic C User s Manual also in the online documentation set 2 4 1 Technical Support NOTE If you purchased your RCM2300 through a distributor or through a Z World or Rabbit Semiconductor partner contact the distributor or Z World partner first for tech nical support If there are any problems at this point Check the Z World Rabbit Semiconductor Technical Bulletin Board at www zworld com support e Use the Technical Support e mail form at www zworld com support 12 RabbitCore RCM2300
3. 3 SOFTWARE INSTALLATION amp OVERVIEW To develop and debug programs for the RCM2300 and for all other Z World and Rabbit Semiconductor hardware you must install and use Dynamic C This chapter takes you through the installation of Dynamic C and then provides a tour of its major features with respect to the RabbitCore RCM2300 module 3 1 An Overview of Dynamic C Dynamic C integrates the following development functions into one program Editing Compiling Linking Loading In Circuit Debugging In fact compiling linking and loading are one function Dynamic C does not use an In Circuit Emulator programs being developed are downloaded to and executed from the target system via an enhanced serial port connection Program development and debug ging take place seamlessly across this connection greatly speeding system development Other features of Dynamic C include Dynamic C has an easy to use built in text editor Programs can be executed and debugged interactively at the source code or machine code level Pull down menus and keyboard shortcuts for most commands make Dynamic C easy to use Dynamic C also supports assembly language programming It is not necessary to leave C or the development system to write assembly language code C and assembly lan guage may be mixed together Debugging under Dynamic C includes the ability to use printf commands watch expressions breakpoints and other advanced debugging features Wa
