User's Manual
About This Manual
We recommend that you read and understand everything in this manual before setting up and
using the product. However, we recognize that users have different styles of learning: some will
want to set up and use their new emulator while they read about it; others will open these pages
only as a “last resort” to check on a particular specification. Therefore, we have designed this
manual to be used either as a “how to” procedural manual or a reference guide to important data.
Additional assistance is provided in the following ways:
■ The emulator graphical user interface (GUI) features a complete, context-sensitive on-line
help facility that provides brief messages on keyboard and ICEBOX commands and various
procedures on how to use the emulator. An index and glossary are also included as part of
this Help Program.
■ The complete emulation board schematic diagram is included at the back of this user's
manual.
Please fill out and return the enclosed Zilog Registration Cards as soon as possible so we can
advise you of updates and improvements to your emulator.
The emulator GUI supports object (binary or Intel hex) produced by the Zilog Z8® and the
Production Language Corporation (PLC) assembler.

ETUP AND INSTALLATION
INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE
To properly install the Z8® Emulator GUI, first start the Windows application, then follow
these steps:
1. Load the Z8 Emulator GUI diskette into compatible disk drive.
2. Select the Run command from the File menu, located under Windows Program
Manager.
3. Type in the following at the prompt:
“a:\setup” (or “b:\setup” if the diskette is in drive B:)
A dialog box will now prompt you for the directory into which the software will be installed
(default is C:\Z8-ICE).
The setup program will copy the files into the target directory, creating a Z8-ICE icon in the
Windows environment.
After the installation is finished, you can move the Z8-ICE icon into any program group of
your choice.
Notes:
1. The installation procedure does not modify the “win.ini”, “autoexec.bat” or “config.sys”
files.
2. An alternative way to install the Z8 Emulator GUI software is to copy all the files
described in the following section to your target directory and manually create a
program item by using the “New” command under the File menu of the Windows
Program Manager. (Consult MS-Windows documentation if you need additional
information about alternate install procedures.)

INSTALLING THE HARDWARE
Before installing the hardware, refer to Figure 2-1 for a rear view of the “generic” emulator
and Figure 2-2, which provides a diagram for connecting the emulator to your PC and
power supply.
Note: Proper functioning of the emulator assumes that the GUI software has been properly
installed and runs correctly on your PC.
Quick Installation
This section provides you with a quick overview of the steps involved in setting up the
hardware. The "Complete Hardware Installation" section, which immediately follows,
provides a more detailed description of the hardware setup procedure.
1. Configure the emulator for internal ROM (if running in ROM Mode).
2. Connect to a +5V power supply and adjust to 0.6A (min.).
3. Connect the serial cable to the PC.
4. Connect the emulator to your design.
5. Set up the oscillator and option jumpers. (Refer to Table 2-1 and Figures 2-3 and 2-4.)
6. Connect the emulator to a logic analyzer (if using).
7. Power up the emulator. (Refer to "Powering Up" and "Powering Down" procedures.)

Complete Hardware Installation
Configuring for Internal ROM. (You may skip this paragraph if you are using external
ROM.) This emulator is configured to run in "ROMless Mode," that is, it uses external ROM
(Port 1 of the Z8 for multiplexed addresses and data). If, however, your application requires
ROM Mode, follow these steps to reconfigure the emulator.
1. Remove the screws from bottom of the emulator and pull off the bottom of the case.
2. Straighten the handles of the programming sockets to an upright position.
Note: We recommend that you leave the black front and back panels with the board.
3. Locate the socketed 20-pin IC labeled "U3" on the daughterboard.
Note: For future reference, note the location of Pin 1.
4. Carefully remove the IC from the socket.
Note: Use an IC puller or small, flat-bladed screwdriver, being careful not to bend the
pins. Store in a safe place; the IC can be replaced on the daughterboard when using
applications that involve ROMless Mode.
5. Locate the jumper header, which has eight jumper wires running diagonally across the
top. Plug the header into the U3 socket so that Pin 1 is in the same corner formerly
occupied by the IC Pin 1.
6. Carefully reassemble the emulator and replace the screws that hold the case together.
Connecting to a Power Supply. If your power supply allows voltage adjustment, do the
following:
1. Turn the power supply on and adjust it to +5V.
2. Set it for at least 0.6A, if there’s a current-limiting adjustment.
3. Turn the supply off or make sure a nonadjustable supply is off.
4. Locate the power cable (red wire, black wire, and banana plugs on one end). Plug in
the black banana plug into the black jack on the power supply (labeled COM, GND, or
with a ground symbol). Plug in the red plug into the red jack on the power supply
(labeled "+" or "+V" or "+5V").
5. Plug the white connector on the other end of the cable into the matching 4-pin connector
on the back of the emulator. (This connection is "keyed" to ensure against an improper
connection.)
Connecting the Serial Cable to the PC. Locate the serial cable and connect the male end
to the female connector on the back of the emulator, then connect the female end to either
the COM1, COM2, COM3, or COM4 connector of your PC.
Note: If connector availability is limited to a 9-pin COM1 through COM4, use a different
cable or a 25- to 9-pin converter. (Zilog does not provide either of these items.)
