Active Probe and the iC5700 Connecting Guidelines
Always start by connecting the iC5700 GND and the target GND using grounding wire
delivered along the iC5700.
If the grounding wire is not connected, the ground potential difference
between the BlueBox hardware and the target can exceed well over 1000V
even before any of the devices are powered up. This voltage difference is
discharged over the BlueBox hardware and the target system, leading to the
possible destruction of electronic components within the BlueBox hardware,
the target or both.
Connect the iC5700 Power Supply to the mains outlet and the iC5700.
Connect the iC5700 to the PC via the supplied Ethernet or USB 3.0 cable
Connect the Active Probe to the iC5700 FNET Port through the supplied FNET Micro
Cable.
If a cable longer than 1.0m is required (for example when debugging an ECU in a
vehicle or a confined space), optional 3.0m and 5.0m FNET Micro cables are available
from iSYSTEM.
Although it looks similar to the HDMI interface, the FNET Port is
not compatible
with
HDMI or any HDMI accessories.
Connecting iSYSTEM hardware to HDMI accessories will damage the hardware and will
render the iSYSTEM hardware warranty void.
Connect the 40-pin HSSTP Active Probe connector to the target. If the target provides
a 20-pin, 2.54mm pitch, ARM JTAG debug connector, use the IASAM40ARMPIN20
adapter in between.
