2. Connect one end of a 9 V power supply to power input J3 on the M1AFS-ADV-DEV-KIT
board ( Figure 2-9 ) and plug the supply into an electrical outlet.
3. Set the DIP switch at S1 to the default configuration of [8:1] = 01011001.
Note: These switches are wired to inputs of the FPGA so that open will correspond to logic 1 (4.6 k
pull-up to 3.3 V) and closed will correspond to logic 0 GND.
4. Determine the COM port assigned to the USB interface. Open the Windows Control Panel
and double-click the System icon. Click the Hardware tab and click the Device Manager
button. Expand the Ports (Com & LPT) item in the Device Manager. Look for the CP2102 USB
to UART Bridge Controller in the list of ports. The COM port in parentheses identifies the
COM port assigned to this device (
Figure 2-10 ). If you do not see CP2102, you need to install
the CP210x_Drivers driver. Refer to "Installing the M1AFS-ADV-DEV-KIT Board USB Serial
Driver" section on page B-31 for more information.
5. Open HyperTerminal and set the communications parameters as shown below. Set the COM
port to match the USB serial port of the board, as shown in Step 4 .
– 115,200 bits per second
– 8 data bit
– Parity set to none
– 1 stop bit
– Flow control set to none
Running the Demonstration Design in Auto Mode
1. Turn the power switch on the board, SW7, to the ON position. Once initialized,
HyperTerminal will display the following:
Core1553BRM 1L02
– 1 indicates BRM core 1 is configured as the bus controller.
– L indicates that bus loopback is enabled.
