anti-virus software must be disabled during installations. Please contact your
system administrator if help is needed in this area.

wait for the auto-run application to start. The user prompts will step the user through
the rest of the CCS installation. The installation will place a CCS icon on your desktop.

2. At this time plug the C5515 eZdsp USB Stick into a USB port (directly or via the USB
extension cable) on your laptop or PC. Windows will recognize the new hardware
connection and complete the hardware installation automatically.

3. Launch CCS v4 from the shortcut icon on the desktop.

4. A prompt will appear asking for a workspace location. Each time CCS starts up the
main workspace is the main working folder for CCS. The default location will be
(on Windows XP) “C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\My
Documents\workspace”. To have CCS automatically default to the specified
workspace location, select the “Use this as the default and do not ask again” option.

5. Create a user license. After launching CCS, the user may be prompted to create a
user license to activate the C CS sof tware . S elect the “ Activa te a Licens e” option. Then
click “Use Free Limited License”. This will re-direct you to the Texas Instruments
website to complete the License creation process. Alternatively, the “Activate a
License” step may be bypassed temporarily and completed at a later date by clicking
“Evaluate Code Composer Studio for 30 days”.
