Getting started
The Integrated Development Environment (IDE) supplied with this system integrates the
following tools:
• Text editor
• BASIC Compiler
• Macro Assembler
The AVR IDE is installed under the Windows Program Group 'Equinox'. To launch the IDE,
simply double-click on the icon or from Windows 95 select:
<Start><Programs><Equinox> and then select the IDE.
i. AVR BASIC
The 'AVR BASIC Lite' compiler included with this system provides a powerful yet cost-
effective method of developing high-level code for the AVR AT90S1200 microcontroller. This
is a true compiler which takes BASIC source code and translates
it into compact and efficient AVR assembler. Example basic
source files can be found in the .../avrbasic/ directory.
