Software Installation
This chapter describes the steps to install the software tools and packages on a PC for using the
PSoC 4100PS Prototyping Kit. This includes the IDE on which the projects will be built and used for
programming.
2.1
Before You Begin
All Cypress software installations require administrator privileges, but these are not required to run
the software after it is installed. Close any other Cypress software that is currently running before
installing the kit software.
2.2
Install Software
Follow these steps to install the PSoC 4100PS Prototyping kit software:
1. Download the PSoC 4100PS Prototyping kit software from
www.cypress.com/CY8CKIT-147
. The
kit software is available in three formats for download.
a.
CY8CKIT-147 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.
b.
CY8CKIT-147 Kit Setup:
This installation package contains the files related to the kit
including PSoC Creator and PSoC Programmer. 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.
c.
CY8CKIT-147 DVD ISO:
This file is a complete package, stored in a DVD-ROM image format,
that 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 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 Setup” or “Kit Only” file, then go to step 4 for installation.
