3. RUNNING SAMPLE PROGRAMS
To develop and debug programs for the RCM3200 (and for all
other Rabbit hardware), you must install and use Dynamic C.
3.1 Introduction
To help familiarize you with the RCM3200 modules, Dynamic C includes several sample
programs. Loading, executing and studying these programs will give you a solid hands-on
overview of the RCM3200’s capabilities, as well as a quick start using 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 RCM3200 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 RCM3200 module must be connected to your PC through the serial programming
cable.
4. Power must be applied to the RCM3200 through the Prototyping Board.
If you are using an RCM3200 or RCM3220, remember to allow the compiler to run the
application in the program execution SRAM by selecting Code and BIOS in Flash, Run
in RAM
from the Dynamic C Options > Project Options > Compiler menu.
To run a sample program, open it with the File menu, then press function key F9 to com-
pile and run the program.
Complete information on Dynamic C is provided in the Dynamic C User’s Manual.
