Installing SPIGen Freeware on your Computer
There are two different versions of SPIGen. One is designed to run on Windows 95/98/Me, and the other
is designed to run on Windows NT/2000/XP. Be sure to choose the appropriate installation program for
your computer. The version number for SPIGen should be 5.0.1 or greater.
Each version of SPIGen includes a README.txt file which will describe the operating systems that the
software should be installed on. Before you install the program, refer to the SPIGen README.txt file to
check the compatibility of the installation program and your computer operating system.
To install the software from the CD-ROM, insert the CD-ROM into your CD drive. Click the Start button,
and then click “Run…”.
If you are running Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows Me, type
“D:\SPIGen_Win_95_98_Me\Setup.exe” in the box, and then click “OK”.
If you are running Windows NT, Windows 2000, or Windows XP, type
“D:\SPIGen_Win_NT_2000_XP\Setup.exe” in the box, and then click “OK”.
Several temporary files will be copied to your computer, and then the Installation Wizard will guide you
through the rest of the process.
To use SPIGen, Go to the Windows Start menu, then Programs, then SPIGen, and click on the SPIGen
icon. The SPIGen "Generic SPI Generator" GUI will appear. Go to the File menu in the upper left hand
corner of the GUI, and select Open, then browse the CD to find and select the SPIGen Configuration ".spi"
file for the EVB you are using. Click Open, and SPIGen will open a specifically configured SPI command
generator for your EVB.
