Preface
This guide clearly and concisely sets out the information developers need to know to get started
with the CASIO 930 Series development. The purpose of this guide is to get you to the point where
you can start development; you should refer to the software manual and Library manual for detailed
information on the specific APIs.
In this document, although the words "HT" and “the terminal” are often used, they denote the
"DT-930 handheld terminal".

1. Prerequisites
1.1 Skills Required
The following skills are required by developers aiming to develop application software for the
DT-930 series.
• MS-DOS command prompt
• C language
1.2 Software Development Tools
The following software are required to develop the application program.
• Hitachi SH-C Compiler.
This compiler is used to compile and link your application program.
• CASIO HT software development kit
In order to develop an application program for CASIO handheld terminals, it is necessary to install
the CASIO handheld terminal SDK. It can be obtained by downloading.
• File communication program
You need proper communication software by the cradle type. If you use DT-960IOE Basic Cradle,
you need the Multi-drop utility. Or, if you use DT-964IOE Satellite Cradle or HA-E60IO Bridge
Basic Cradle, you need the LMWIN utility.

1.3 General Flow of Application Development
The general flow of application program development is shown below.

2. Setting Up The Development Environment
The development tools (i.e. compiler, linker, etc.) are MS-DOS based program. The following
explanations are supposed to use DOS prompt of MS-Windows.
2.1 Installing the C Compiler
Firstly, make the required directory as follows:
C:\> mkdir C:\SHC <ENTER>
C:\> cd C:\SHC <ENTER>
1. Insert the SHC Compiler disk no. 1/3 into your Drive A:
C:\SHC> XCOPY /S A:\*.* C: <ENTER>
2. Insert the SHC Compiler disk no. 2/3 into your Drive A:
C:\SHC> XCOPY /S A:\*.* C: <ENTER>
3. Insert the SHC Compiler disk no. 3/3 into your Drive A:
C:\SHC> XCOPY /S A:\*.* C: <ENTER>
4. Insert the SHC Linker disk no. 1/1 into your Drive A:
C:\SHC>XCOPY /S A:\*.* C:\SHC\BIN<ENTER>
2.2 Setting Path and Environment Variables
It is necessary to set proper path and environment variables for compiling. Create a batch file like
setenv.bat and execute it before compiling. An example of contents of the file according to the
environment used in this guide is as follows:
echo off
SET DRV=C:\SHC
PATH=%drv%\BIN;%path%
SET SHC_LIB=%drv%\BIN
SET SHC_INC=%drv%\INCLUDE
SET SHC_TMP=C:\
Note:
SHC_LIB is used to specify where the compiler is, not for the libraries.

2.3 Installing the CASIO Software Development Kit
The model specific SDKs are provided at the CASIO web site. The following example is the layout
recommended for the terminal.
