4.4 Notes on Using This Product
Notes on using this product are listed below. Be sure to read these notes before using this product.
IMPORTANT
Note on Malfunctions in the PC4701 System
If the emulator malfunctions because of interference like external noise, do the following to remedy the
trouble
(1) Press the RESET switch on the emulator front panel.
(2) If normal operation is not restored after step (1), shut OFF power to the emulator once and then
reactivate it.
Notes on Downloading Firmware:
Before using this product for the first time, it is necessary to download the dedicated firmware (control
software built into the PC4701). Please note that, to do this, it is necessary to start up the emulator
main unit in maintenance mode. For firmware download procedures, see "3.3 Downloading Firmware"
(page 28). Once the firmware has been downloaded, the product can be used by simply turning on the
power.
Do not shut off the power while downloading the firmware. If this happens, the product will not start
up properly. If power is shut off unexpectedly, redownload the firmware in maintenance mode.
Be sure to disconnect the user system before downloading the firmware.
Notes on the Self-check:
If the self-check does not result normally (excluding user system error), the emulation pod or pod probe
may be damaged. Then contact your local distributor.
Be sure to disconnect the user system before executing the self-check. For details on the self-check, see
"3.4 Self-check" on page 29.
Note on Quitting the Emulator Debugger:
To restart the emulator debugger after it ends, always shut power to the emulator off once and wait
about 10 seconds, then turn on the power again.
Notes on Power Supply to the User System:
The Vcc terminal of the emulator is connected to the user system to observe the voltage of the user
system. Therefore design your system so that the user system is powered by an external power supply.
The voltage of the user system should be within the MCU's specified range.
Do not change the voltage of the user system after turning on the power.
Before powering on your emulator system, check that the host machine, the emulator main unit, the
converter board and user system are all connected correctly. Next, turn on the power to each equipment
following the procedure below.
(1) Turn ON/OFF the user system and the PC4701 emulator as simultaneously as possible.
(2) When the PC4701 and emulator debugger start up, check the target status LEDs on the emulator
main unit's front panel to see if this product is ready to operate.
Is the power supplied? Check target status LED (POWER) is ON.
Is the reset is released? Check target status LED (RESET) is OFF.
