Installation
Installation on Windows
To install the server package on a Windows system, execute the setup_siggdbserver.exe program.
The default installation folder is C:\Signum\SigGdbServer.
If a system-level JTAGjet USB driver has not yet been installed on your computer, the system
will prompt you for the appropriate driver upon connecting the emulator to the USB port for
the first time. Point the installation program to the Drivers\USB subfolder of the installation
folder (e.g., C:\Signum\SigGdbServer\Drivers\USB).

First Time Run
Make sure that your emulator is connected to a USB port. A dialog box will prompt you to select
the JTAGjet emulator to be used with the server. Your selection will be saved in the Windows
registry and used in subsequent debug sessions. To connect to another emulator, use the
-connect option, which allows you to specify a new emulator serial number.
License Installation
A new JTAGjet emulator for GDB Server comes with a license already installed in the hardware.
When converting (upgrading) a JTAGjet emulator to work with the GDB Server, Signum
provides an appropriate *.lic license file. Copy this file to either the C:\Signum\Licenses or the
SigGdbServer folder.
Installation on Linux
