Running the demo application

The AVR device supplied with the kit comes pre-programmed with a demo application that uses the on-board LCD. Follow this check list:
  1. 1.

    Mount the STK504 on the STK500

  2. 2.

    Place the AVR with the programmed demo application in the ZIF socket

  3. 3.

    Connect the LCD cable

  4. 4.

    Make sure the VTARGET jumper on STK500 is mounted

  5. 5.

    Set the switch on STK504 to the LF position

  6. 6.

    Turn on power on STK500

The demo application should now run, flashing some of the LCD segments and displaying some text.

The source code and hex file for the demo can be downloaded from the Atmel web site.
