Chapter 5 Auxiliary Tools 

The EM20-M37 provides the following two tools to assist users in engine performance evaluation, application development 

and engine configuration. 

 

EVK 

The EVK is provided to help users to test and evaluate the EM20-M37, which contains beeper & beeper driver circuit, LED 

& LED driver circuit, and trigger & reset buttons, TTL-232 to RS-232 converter & TTL-232 to USB converter, RS-232 & USB 

interfaces, etc. The EM20-M37 can be connected to the EVK via a 12-pin FFC cable type 1 (contacts on the same side). 

Either USB connection or RS-232 connection can be used when connecting the EVK to a host device. 

 

EasySet 

EasySet is a Windows-based configuration tool developed by Newland, which can be used to configure the EM20-M37.
