Software Setup for PC GUI Demo
The GUI for evaluating this kit is named LED_BOOST_PC_GUI.exe and can be found in the C2000
LaunchPad controlSUITE™ package. This GUI is all the software necessary to do a quick evaluation of
this kit. To explore deeper, the underlying reference software can be found within controlSUITE.
NOTE:
The GUI requires Microsoft
®
.NET framework 3.0 to run. Please ensure that this software is
installed prior to running this program.
If this demo is being used on a computer that uses a decimal comma, the regional settings of
the computer may need to be changed to English for this demo to run correctly.
Follow these instructions to run the GUI included with the LED BoosterPack:
1. Start Code Composer Studio™ version 5.
2. In TI Resource Explorer, look for an entry called controlSUITE and expand the Development Tools
section.
3. Expand the entry for BOOSTXL-C2KLED and look for the PC GUI application project. Follow the steps
in the right pane of Resource Explorer to import, compile, program, and run the embedded half of this
example.
4. Browse to and run the LED_BOOST_PC_GUI.exe GUI. The program shown in
should
appear. This executable resides next to the embedded example application in Resource Explorer.
