13504PLAY
13504PLAY allows the user to read/write to all S1D13504 registers/look up tables and display
memory.
13504PLAY is similar to the DOS DEBUG program; commands are received from the standard
input device, and output is sent to the standard output device (console for Intel, terminal for
embedded platforms). This utility requires the target platform to support standard IO (stdio).
13504PLAY commands can be entered interactively using a keyboard/monitor or they can be
executed from a script file. Scripting is a powerful feature which allows command sequences to be
used repeatedly without re-entry.
The 13504PLAY display utility must be configured and/or compiled to work with your hardware
platform. Consult documentation for the program 13504CFG.EXE which can be used to configure
13504PLAY.
This software is designed to work in both embedded and personal computer (PC) environments. For
the embedded environment, it is assumed that the system has a means of downloading software from
the PC to the target platform. Typically this is done by serial communications, where the PC uses a
terminal program to send control commands and information to the target processor. Alternatively,
the PC can program an EPROM, which is then placed in the target platform. Some target platforms
can also communicate with the PC via a parallel port connection, or an Ethernet connection.
S1D13504 Supported Evaluation Platforms
13504PLAY has been tested with the following S1D13504 supported evaluation platforms:
• PC system with an Intel 80x86 processor.
• M68332BCC (Business Card Computer) board, revision B, with a Motorola MC68332
processor.
• M68EC000IDP (Integrated Development Platform) board, revision 3.0, with a Motorola
M68EC000 processor.
• SH3-LCEVB board, revision B, with an Hitachi SH-3 HD6417780 processor.
If the platform you are using is different from the above, please see the S1D13504 “Programming
Notes and Examples” manual, document number X19A-G-002-xx.
Installation
PC platform: copy the file 13504PLAY.EXE to a directory that is in the DOS path on your hard
drive.
Embedded platform: download the program 13504PLAY to the system.
