Here are the steps to setting up your product device for use
with the Ezairo Sound Designer software:
NOTE: If you are programming the device with your own
firmware, please refer to the documentation provided within
the Ezairo 7100 Evaluation & Development Kit.
1. Connect the product to your programmer and to
your computer, as follows:
♦
Connect your input source to the negative and
center pins of the 3−pin AI1H header.
♦
Connect your recording or listening equipment
to the output, which is labelled OUT0. You
might require an external amplifier to drive
headphones from the output.
♦
You can use SW1 and SW2 (found on the
evaluation board) to adjust the volume.
♦
The maximum input signal range is
approximately 2 Vpp (volts peak−to−peak).
2. Power on the board by setting SW3 to ON.
3. Next, start Sound Designer software by
double−clicking on the SD/sounddesigner.exe
shortcut, which you will find wherever you
installed the Sound Designer software files.
4. Choose a workspace as shown in Figure 1 on page
8. If you do not have a workspace directory
available, click Browse and the software allows
you to create one. If you click Browse and select a
pre−existing directory for your workspace, make
sure it is empty. For this example, check Import
Sample Workspace, and select E7150SL from the
drop−down list. Click OK.
5. Open the console window by clicking the Show
console icon. The console window displays error
and status messages accumulated in this session.
We recommend having the console viewable at all
times while using Sound Designer software, to get
immediate status information.
6. Click on Control Panel and then, for this example,
double−click the Ezairo7150SL.param sample
parameter file to open the demo product library.
See Section 2.1.5, “The SETTINGS Window” on
page 11 for more information.
7. To connect to the device, go to the SETTINGS
window. Select the correct Programmer, and Port
if applicable. If you also select Verify NVM
Writes, the software burns the settings to the
device’s Non−Volatile Memory and then
immediately reads back the settings to confirm that
the values burned to the device match what is
being read out of the device. This option requires
additional programming time. Next, click on
Detect. A successful detection will populate the
device information in the Device Info box.
8. Use the back button−the arrow in the top left
corner−to return to the Control Panel.
9. To configure the device for the selected product,
click Programmer > Connect. If the connection
succeeds, the Connection status symbol appears to
the right of the File Name. You can hover over this
symbol to view the programmer name and the
firmware ID of the device. The connected device
must now be configured before you can read, burn
or write parameters in Control Panel. Click
Programmer > Configure to do this.
10. Now you are ready to begin. See Chapter 3,
“Modeler” on page 15 of the Ezairo Sound
Designer Software User Manual for your next
steps in the process of developing a product with
Sound Designer software.
