2.2.2 Connect Programming Cable
The programming cable connects the PowerCore module to the PC running Dynamic C to
download programs and to monitor the PowerCore module during debugging.
Connect the 10-pin connector of the programming cable labeled PROG to header J2 on
the PowerCore module as shown in
Figure 3. There is a small dot on the circuit board next
to pin 1 of header J2. Be sure to orient the marked (usually red) edge of the cable towards
pin 1 of the connector. (Do not use the DIAG connector, which is used for a nonprogram-
ming serial connection.)
Attach the DE9 connector end of the programming cable to a COM (serial) port on the PC.
NOTE: Be sure to use the programming cable (part number 101-0542) supplied with this
Tool Kit—the programming cable has blue shrink wrap around the RS-232 converter
section located in the middle of the cable. Programming cables from other Rabbit Semi-
conductor kits might not work with
PowerCore modules.
Figure 3. Connect Programming Cable and Power Supply
NOTE: Some PCs now come equipped only with a USB port. It may be possible to use
an RS-232/USB converter (Part No. 540-0070) with the programming cable supplied
with the PowerCore FLEX Development Kit. Note that not all RS-232/USB converters
work with Dynamic C.
