To configure the board in real time with R.I.C.E. , just unzip the software archive in a
directory of the hard drive and double click on the program icon. You'll get straight in
the R.I.C.E. main window.
The numerous parameters of the main PC configuration file (
config.txt
) have been
split in 4 tabs, organized by "themes" as much as possible to ease the configuration
process. If you need any
help
to remember how R.I.C.E. works, click on the
Tools
icon on the lower right side of the program, it will open the help section.
To establish the communication with the saber, turn the blade on, then select the
serial port. Make sure to always click the serial port in the drop-down list even if the
correct one appears as selected.
It's advised to use a single serial port at a time. Sometimes you'll have your Bluetooth
serial port enabled at the same time and appearing in the port selection menu: make
sure you identify the serial / COM port # corresponding to your R.I.C.E. cable.
If you have a doubt, go to the System control panel and open the Peripherals list.
Plugging / unplugging your cable will show up in the list. You can change the port #
by right clicking on the COM peripheral and going in the advanced properties. I tend
to renumber all my data cable as COM2 but I use only one at once.
