AVR32 EVK1100 Getting Started Guide
Introduction
Power up
The EVK1100 provides a complete development environment for the AT32UC3A microcontroller series from Atmel. The device is pre-loaded with an application, called the
AT32UC3A Control Panel (in short Control Panel).
The Control Panel application is a demonstration application. Its purpose is to log onboard sensors and actuators data and events (data acquisition through ADC channels)
and make these available through the various connectivity channels supported by the
AT32UC3A microcontroller series.
The logs are accessible locally through USART or USB (Mass Storage class), and/or
remotely through the Internet (Web server).
The Control Panel is locally configurable through USART or USB (Mass Storage class)
or remotely configurable through the Internet (Web server).
Step 1: Connect the provided power cable (with 5.5/2.1mm DC plug) to a power
supply. Set it to provide power from 8 to 20V. Plug it to the board's power supply jack
with the following polarity:
Step 2: Set the board’s power switch to EXT (i.e. power from jack rather than from
USB).
Step 1 Step 2
The LCD lights up : the Control Panel is up & running.

The next step is to access the Control Panel through its web server with a direct pointto-point connection between a PC and the EVK1100 board.
Configuring the PC
network port to local
mode (Windows XP)
Most computers are setup to use dynamic IP addresses. To directly connect the
EVK1100 to a PC, the network interface of the PC must be configured to use a static IP
address. The goal of this section is to perform such a configuration.
Step 1: Select Start−>Settings−>Network Connections.
Step 2: Right-click on the network connection where the EVK1100 will be plugged to
and select Properties. There may be several defined connections on the PC: the
connection associated with the Ethernet port of the PC must be selected.
