2. Installation
This chapter describes the steps to install the software tools and packages on a PC for using the CY8CKIT-044 PSoC 4 M-
Series Pioneer Kit. This includes the IDE on which the projects will be built and used for programming.
2.1 Before You Begin
To install Cypress software, you will require administrator privileges. However, they are not required to run software that is
already installed. Before you install the kit software, close any other Cypress software that is currently running.
2.2 Install Software
Follow these steps to install the CY8CKIT-044 PSoC 4 M-Series Pioneer Kit software:
1. Download the PSoC 4 M-Series Pioneer Kit software from
www.cypress.com/CY8CKIT-044
. The kit software is
available in three different formats for download.
a.
CY8CKIT-044 Kit Complete Setup:
This installation package contains the files related to the kit. However, it
does not include the Windows Installer or Microsoft .NET framework packages. If these packages are not on
your computer, the installer directs you to download and install them from the Internet.
b.
CY8CKIT-044 Kit Only:
This executable file installs only the kit contents, which include kit code examples,
hardware files, and user documents. This package can be used if all the software prerequisites (listed in step
5) are installed on your PC.
c.
CY8CKIT-044 DVD ISO:
This file is a complete package, stored in a DVD-ROM image format, which you can
use to create a DVD or extract using an ISO extraction program such as WinZip
®
or WinRAR. The file can
also be mounted like a virtual CD/DVD using virtual drive programs such as Virtual CloneDrive and MagicISO.
This file includes all the required software, utilities, drivers, hardware files, and user documents.
2. If you have downloaded the ISO file, mount it in a virtual drive. Extract the ISO contents if you do not have a virtual
drive to mount. Double-click
cyautorun.exe
in the root directory of the extracted content or the mounted ISO if
“Autorun
from CD/DVD
” is not enabled on the PC. The installation window will appear automatically.
Note:
If you are using the
“Kit Complete Setup” or “Kit Only” file, then go to step 4 for installation.
3. Click
Install CY8CKIT-044
to start the kit installation, as shown in
Figure 2-1
