The board is a combination of a CPU- main board and a graphic subboard equipped with the graphic chip. Fujitsu has a number of graphic controllers for embedded systems organized in different device families. All graphic controllers from one particular family are software-compatible.
1.1. Board Configuration There are a number of boards available for each Fujitsu graphic controller as well as at least one CPU type. Make sure you have both, a CPU- and a graphic-subboard available. The boards are available individually !
ü Power Requirements: A power supply, capable of supporting 9-12V DC at about 1200 mA. Note that the power connector must be + at the shield and - in the centre. Power supplies are available from Fujitsu. ü RS232 : An ‘extension’ (1:1) RS232 cable with DB9 m+f connectors ü...
2.2. Software installation Insert the provided CD-ROM, browse to the “Modular Starterkit”-section and select the Installation option for your CPU-module and Graphic Controller. Follow the instructions to extract the software package. Note : If you don’t have Softune Workbench installed on your PC already, you should extract the Softune Workbench package first.
Getting Started Make sure you have the software installed on your PC and the evaluation board is ready to use. For details refer to the Hardware and Software Installation chapters. This chapter uses the available examples to illustrate some features of Softune Workbench. 3.1.
3.3. MB91360 Flash Programmer The tool „MB91360 Flash Programmer“ is a general flash programming tool which works with all devices of the MB91360 series. Make sure you have installed the Flash Programmer from your CD-ROM. The package includes the executable (Flashprg.exe) as well as some binary files (Brloadxx.bin) and a user’s guide (Flashprg.pdf).
Page 11
Follow these steps to use the MB91360 Flash Programmer : 1. Connect a serial cable (RS232 „extension“-type 1:1 / male-female) from a PC COM-port (1-4) to your CPU-board „UART0“-connector. 2. Specify a (hex-)file in the “file to program”-field (use the browse-button to select).
3.4. Using the API-commander If you have successfully programmed the APIcommander-software to your CPU-module, close the flashprogrammer tool and open the provided terminal program „Starterkit Wizard“ (SKWizVxx.exe). This program is a standard terminal program with some more extensions for your Cremson modular starterkit. Execute Starterkit Wizard, select the COM-port (make sure, you still have the RS232-line connected to your CPU-module) and press on the connect-button.

In addition, you can send a sequence of these commands as textfiles to execute a linear set of functions. Try the following example : Click on the „Load File“ button and locate the folder „SEQ“ which contains a number of example files. Choose „SetupVGA.seq“ and click OK.

Now try to execute a very simple graphic function on your own – drawing a line. To do so, enter the following commands : >GdcColor GDC_RED >GdcPrimType GDC_LINES >GdcDrawVertex2D 0,0 >GdcDrawVertex2D 640,480 >GdcPrimEnd You should now see a red line across the monitor. This example shows how the APIcommander works : You can enter a set of commands exactly the way you would have to when writing a program.
3.5. Using the “Cremson Starterkit Demon”-Program Another way to control the functions of the APIcommander-software is provided demo program „Cremson Starterkit Demon“ (Cremkitdemo.exe). This program is a windows-based „remote- control-unit“ for almost all functions of the Cremson/Scarlet Graphic- Controller. It requires the APIcommander-software running on the CPU- module (see previous section).
Creating projects with Softune Workbench Make sure you have Softune Workbench for FR installed on your PC and the evaluation board is ready to use. For details refer to the Hardware and Software Installation chapters. This chapter uses the available examples to illustrate some features of Softune Workbench.

assembler, C-compiler and linker for FR whenever necessary (only the changed files will be re-compiled). If you wish to re-compile the entire project regardless of any changes, you can use the BUILD-function. To check for syntax-errors on a specific source-file, use the COMPILE/ASSEMBLE function. These three functions are available on the button-bar or from the main menu (Project –...
