The first step to getting started with the Development Package is to get the package itself!
SourceForge SJSU Development Package
Get the Development Package and unzip in your C drive
It is important to NOT unzip at your desktop

The unzipped path should not have spaces
Get JAVA. If you have 64-bit Java installed, uninstall it and get 32-bit Java.
Follow the steps below; screenshots of reference images are included.

Here are steps to follow in order to compile program for Embedded Processors:

1. Plug-in your development board If Windows doesn't install the drivers, browse to your Development Package for the driver	Driver is in Development Package directory
2. Once Board driver is installed, open up Eclipse32_Emb.bat file Eclipse will start and sample projects will appear on the left side.	Browse Development Folder directory to find bat file
3. Once Eclipse opens, open ONLY ONE project. Close other projects if they are open. You can right click on one of the sample projects and then choose Open Project	Open Eclipse Project
4. Press Ctrl+B to build your project Popup window will appear leading to "Build Finished" in the console below.	Build Project
Now it is time to load the compiled program to the Embedded Board 5. Open up Hyperload from the Development Package 6. Your Board appears as a "COM" Port. Open up an available COM Port. 7. In Eclipse, there will be a _Build or Release directory, locate .hex file Drag & Drop this file to Hyperload* (or you can click OPEN button in Hyperload to do the same thing) Press RESET button on your Embedded Board to start Programming. After Programming completes, close the COM Port in Hyperload	Programming in Hyperload
8. Open up Hercules from your Development Package Browse to Serial Port Tab, and select 38400bps Select the same COM Port as you did in Hyperload and click OPEN Press the RESET button again to see the output of your program.	View Output in Hercules

Note that you can only open up COM Port in ONE Program
If you are programming, close COM Port in Hercules and open in Hyperload

If you wish to look at the output, close COM Port in Hyperload and open in Hercules
Hyperload will always grab the latest HEX file before programming
Only change HEX file if you are working on another project.
Clicking on Set in Hyperload CPU Frequency section will make more choices appear under COM Port speed.
You can program at any of the baud rates listed
