If there are any communication problems between the host and the CL-PS7500FE evaluation board, the ARM tools
might revert to using the ARMulator as a result of an obscurely worded dialog box. If this happens, you will have to
use the “Configure Debugger…” option to switch back to debugging on the CL-PS7500FE evaluation board.
Run Sample Programs
The example software provided in the evaluation kit is designed to run under control of the Angel debug monitor
from ARM. The source code for these programs is contained in the ps7500fe\samples directory of the CD-ROM.
Run the ARM Project Manager program, which is found by going to the “Start” menu, then “Programs”, then “ARM
SDT v2.50”. Once run, it will show an empty workspace. First, open a project file (which has an extension of
“.apj”). This is done by selecting “Open” from the “File” menu. Go to the ps7500fe\samples directory and click on
the desired demo “<filename.apj>” file, listed for each demo. Once the project has been opened, run the executable.
To do this, select “Execute <filename.apj> ‘Debug’” from the “Project” menu, or press Ctrl+F5. This will launch
the ARM Debugger, load the executable image, and begin execution of the program. To exit the program, refer to
the exit program information found within each of the demonstrations below.
The ‘screen.apj’ project file will build the screen program. ‘Screen’ is a program that demonstrates the drawing
capabilities of the SVGA controller. When run, it will draw a series of images on the display. Once each image is
drawn, the program will pause until a keyboard button is pressed. Pressing any key will cause it to draw the next
image. After the last image is drawn and a keyboard button pressed, the program will exit.
You must exit the ARM Debugger after each sample program is run or the system will lock up on you.
You should now be well on your way to use the features of the CL-PS7500FE development board.
