Step-by-Step Installation Instructions
In this quick start guide, you will learn how to set up the DEVKIT-ZVL128 board and run the default exercise.
- Install Software and Tools
Install CodeWarrior Development Studio for S12Z 10.6(Eclipse). - Connect the USB Cable
Connect one end of the USB cable to the PC and the other end to the mini-B connector on the DEVKIT-ZVL128 board. Allow the PC to automatically configure the USB drivers if needed. - Using the Example Project
The pre-loaded example project utilizes the DEVKIT-ZVL128 potentiometer and the RGB LED. Once the board is plugged in you can adjust the potentiometer and the RGB LEDs should illuminate/de-illuminate in response. Each color will change when the potentiometer position is adjusted. - Learn More About the S12ZVL
