2. Installation and Test Operation
This chapter describes the steps to install the software tools on a PC for using the FM4
S6E2H-Series Starter Kit. After successful installation, the user can run pre-programmed test
code on the device.
2.1 Install Software
Follow the steps below to install the FM4 S6E2H-Series Starter Kit software:
1. Download the FM4 S6E2H-Series Starter Kit installer from the webpage
www.cypress.com/FM4-120L-S6E2HG. The Kit software is available for download in three
formats.
FM4 S6E2H-Series Starter Kit Complete Setup: This installation package contains the
files related to the kit, including the Documentation, Hardware, Firmware, Software tools
and drivers. However, it does not include the Windows Installer or Microsoft .NET
framework packages. If these packages are not installed on your computer, the installer
directs you to download and install them from the Internet.
FM4 S6E2H-Series Starter Kit Only: This executable file installs only the kit contents,
which include kit code examples, hardware files, and user documents. This package can
be used if all the software prerequisites (listed in step 7) are already installed on your
PC.
FM4 S6E2H-Series Starter Kit DVD ISO: This file is a complete package, stored in a
DVD-ROM image format, which you can use to create a DVD or extract using an ISO
extraction program such as WinZip® or WinRAR. The file can also be mounted like a
virtual CD/DVD using virtual drive programs such as Virtual CloneDrive and MagicISO.
This file includes all the required software, utilities, drivers, hardware files, and user
documents.
2. If you have downloaded the ISO file, mount it as a virtual drive. Extract the ISO contents if
you do not have a virtual drive to mount the ISO file. Double-click cyautorun.exe in the
root directory of the extracted content or the mounted ISO if “Autorun from CD/DVD” is not
enabled on the PC. The installation window will appear automatically.
Note: If you are using the “Kit Complete Setup” or “Kit Only” package, then go to step 4 for
installation.
