Installing Software and documentation
The CD contains an executable file – Kanda AVR.exe. Run this installer and it will copy
all the documentation, sample code and software to your PC.
The default install folder for Kanda software and documentation is
C:\Program Files\Kanda AVR
You also have the option in this installer to install WinAVR C Compiler and AVR Studio
development environment. We recommend that you do install these unless you already
have them on your PC.
There are three main pieces of software:
•
AVRISP
– This is the programmer software, used for transferring code from the PC
into the AVR device on the board. To install the software Double Click the EXE file
and follow the on-screen install instructions.
AVRISP has a Documents folder that contains PDF files with useful information about
AVRISP.
•
AVR Studio
-
AVR Studio is a complete development system for AVR devices,
supplied by Atmel. It is probably the best available for any microcontroller. This
environment is where you write new programs, and assemble them for the AVR chip.
It also includes a Simulator for stepping through your code to debug it. The
documentation folder includes instructions on using AVR Studio.
The installer allows you to install AVR Studio. The default install path is
C:\Program Files\Atmel\AVR Tools\AVR Studio
