2.
Verify that jumpers 5-6 (RXUSB) and 9-10 (TXUSB) on JP32 for the USB interface are
disconnected. This is because you can only use one of the EIA-232 and USB interfaces on the FT
6000 EVB at a time. See
Switch, Temperature Sensor, Joystick, and USB Connections (JP32)
earlier in this chapter for more information.
3.
Connect jumpers 1-2 (IO8 R10) and 7-8 (IO10 T1IN) on JP201. This connects the
IO8
and
IO10
pins on the FT 6000 Smart Transceiver to the EIA-232 communications interface on the board.
IO10
is connected to pin 12 as a serial data output (TX) on the EIA-232 interface, and
IO8
is
connected to pin 14 as a serial data input (RX).

4.
Run Windows HyperTerminal or another terminal emulation program on your computer to
monitor the serial output. Configure your terminal emulation program for direct connection to
your serial port using the serial parameters specified in the device application. See
Configuring a
Device Application for Serial Debugging
earlier in this chapter for more information on
configuring your device application for application-level debugging.
Note
: You can use only one of the EIA-232 or USB interfaces on the FT 6000 EVB at a time.
For information on implementing serial I/O, see the
EIA-232C Serial Interfacing with the Neuron Chip
engineering bulletin (005-0008-01D).
Connecting the EIA-232 Interface (with handshake lines)
You can enable the EIA-232 interface with handshake lines to connect your FT 6000 EVB to a
development computer for performing application-level debugging or to connect it to other
microcontrollers.
