3. RUNNING SAMPLE PROGRAMS
To develop and debug programs for the RCM3100 (and for all other
Rabbit Semiconductor hardware), you must install and use
Dynamic C. Chapter 3 walks you through the sample programs
associated with the RCM3100.
3.1 Introduction
To help familiarize you with the RCM3100 modules, Dynamic C includes several sample
programs. Loading, executing and studying these programs will give you a solid hands-on
overview of the RCM3100’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.
Complete information on Dynamic C is provided in the Dynamic C User’s Manual.
In order to run the sample programs discussed in this chapter and elsewhere in this manual,
1. Your RCM3100 module must be plugged in to the Prototyping Board as described in
2. Dynamic C must be installed and running on your PC.
3. The RCM3100 module must be connected to your PC through the serial programming
cable.
4. Power must be applied to the RCM3100 through the Prototyping Board.
To run a sample program, open it with the File menu, then press function key F9 to com-
pile and run the program.
