Tutorial Step 8: Running the Application on the CEPC

In this step, you run the newly created Hello.exe application on the CEPC. By default, the Hello.exe application is not included in the OS image. It is downloaded to the target device from the development workstation at run time. This allows you to further develop the application without having to rebuild the entire OS image after each change that you make to the application.

To run the application on the CEPC

  1. Reboot the CEPC.

  2. On the development workstation, from the Target menu in the IDE, choose Download/Initialize.

  3. In the KITL Security Warning dialog box, choose Yes.

    Wait for the OS image to download and for the OS to appear on the display for the CEPC.

  4. From the Target menu, choose Run Programs.

  5. In the Available Programs list, select Hello.exe, and then choose Run.

    The Hello.exe application downloads from the development workstation to the CEPC. The application then runs on the CEPC.

  6. Verify that the Hello.exe application has successfully run and that it appears on the CEPC display.

You have successfully run a custom application on the CEPC. You should now disconnect Platform Builder from the CEPC so that you can create and export a software development kit (SDK).

To disconnect Platform Builder from the CEPC

  1. On the development workstation, from the Target menu of the IDE, choose Disconnect, and then choose OK.
  2. Verify that you want to stop all running services by choosing OK.
  3. Verify that you want to stop debugging now without disabling KdStub by choosing Yes.

You are now ready to create and export an SDK.
