Before powering on your kit, you will have to install a terminal emulation program to
communicate with the development kit. Please proceed to the next section for
details.
4.3 Terminal Emulation Installation
The Zoom OMAP35x Development Kit is designed to communicate with terminal emulation
programs using the included null-modem serial cable. The terminal emulation program must
support binary transfers in order to download software to the kit. Although Logic does not
support any particular terminal emulation program, we suggest using Tera Term Pro for
Windows 2000 or XP (Tera Term Pro is not available for Linux users). Tera Term Pro can be
downloaded for free from Logic’s website. To install Tera Term:
1.
Download the.zip file from Logic’s website and unzip the contents:
www.logicpd.com/downloads/240/
2.
After unzipping the contents, locate the “setup.exe” file and double-click it.
3.
Follow the on-screen instructions to install Tera Term.
Once the terminal emulation program has been installed on your PC, open a new serial port
connection using the COM port where the null-modem serial cable is connected to the host
PC. Set the ‘baud-rate’ to 115200, ‘data’ to 8-bit, ‘parity’ to none, ‘stop’ to 1-bit, and ‘flow
control’ to none. (
Hint:
In Tera Term, you can save these serial port settings by selecting
