“Power Target from Emulator” and choose the “5.0V” option. Otherwise connect a 5V centre
positive supply.
30 Click <Next>
31 Enter FF000 for the firmware location. It is recommended that the E8a firmware location
is towards the top of the memory map.
32 Enter 3300 for the Work RAM location. It is recommended that the Work RAM is towards the
top of the memory map.
33 Ensure that the checkbox“Debugging of program that uses WDT” is not checked.
34 Click <Next>.
35 The “MCU Setting” view will be shown. Leave the default options as shown.
36 Click <Finish>.
Note: The first time the E8a is connected, you may be asked to choose a driver, select

on the dialog.
37 Accept any dialog warning that another version of E8a firmware is necessary to work with the application. Allow download of firmware to complete,
this may take several seconds.
38 Right click on the download module listed in the left hand pane and select ‘Download’. The code
