RUNNING THE DEMO
This chapter describes the MPLAB
demonstration that is preloaded on the PIC24H MCU device, which showcases the
multitasking of accelerometer sensing, the OLED display, speech playback, and the
switch press monitor. This software application demonstrates how to use the MPLAB
Starter Kit for PIC24H MCUs for signal capture and processing of the sensor signal,
speech decoding and playback, and controlling the OLED display.
A detailed explanation of the starter kit hardware is provided in Chapter
4. “Hardware”.
Topics covered include:
• Running the Demo
• Understanding the Demo
• Other Demo Code Examples
To run the demo, follow these steps:
1. Power-up the starter kit by connecting the board to the USB port of a computer.
FIGURE 2-1:
You should briefly see a pop-up message in the system tray that states (1) new
hardware has been found, (2) drivers are being installed, and (3) new hardware
is ready for use. If you do not see these messages and the starter kit does not
work, try reconnecting the USB cable. If reconnecting the USB cable does not
work, refer to Section 3.8 “Troubleshooting”.
When powered up, an audible welcome message is played while simultaneously
displaying the Start-up screen on the OLED display (see Figure 2-1).
