User’s Manual 153. RUNNING SAMPLE PROGRAMSTo develop and debug programs for the RCM4200 (and for allother Rabbit Semiconductor hardware), you must install and useDynamic C. This chapter provides a tour of its major featureswith respect to the RCM4200.3.1 IntroductionTo help familiarize you with the RCM4200 modules, Dynamic C includes several sampleprograms. Loading, executing and studying these programs will give you a solid hands-onoverview of the RCM4200’s capabilities, as well as a quick start with Dynamic C as anapplication development tool.NOTE: The sample programs assume that you have at least an elementary grasp of ANSI C.If you do not, see the introductory pages of the Dynamic C User’s Manual for a sug-gested reading list.In order to run the sample programs discussed in this chapter and elsewhere in this manual,1. Your module must be plugged in to the Prototyping Board as described in Chapter 2,“Getting Started.”2. Dynamic C must be installed and running on your PC.3. The programming cable must connect the programming header on the module to yourPC.4. Power must be applied to the module 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 (if it is not still open), then compileand run it by pressing F9.Each sample program has comments that describe the purpose and function of the pro-gram. Follow the instructions at the beginning of the sample program.More complete information on Dynamic C is provided in the Dynamic C User’s Manual.
