3. For basic input/output interface LEDs and switches are provided.
4. A common cathode seven segment is interfaced to study interface of
display device.
5. A small DC motor (cell phone vibration motor) is interfaced to
microcontroller and the driver circuit is provided on the kit.
6. A MAX-232 IC with capacitors is interfaced to the microcontroller at its SCI
port to provide serial communication.
7. Power-ON reset circuitry is provided on the board that resets the
microcontroller when it is powered up. A reset switch is also present to
reset the microcontroller at any instance.
8. USB cable is provided to power up the kit. A ON/OFF switch is present to

Connecting and powering up the kit
1. Power is provided to the kit through USB cable provided with the kit.
2. Connect the B side of the USB cable to the B type connector present on the
kit.
3. Connect the A side of the USB cable to USB connector of the
Laptop/desktop.
4. After connecting both ends of the cable, push the ON/OFF switch.
5. A small LED besides this switch turns ON to indicate that the kit is powered
up properly.
6. The serial cable provided with the kit is used to transfer the hex code from
the PC to the kit and also as a serial link between the kit and any other
device while performing serial communication.
7. Connect one of the ends of the serial cable (Male connector) to the female
serial DB-9 connector on the kit.
8. Connect the other end of this cable to the serial port of the computer
(Desktop).
9. A USB to serial convertor may be used if the kit is to be connected to a
Laptop.
10.There is no indication whether the serial link between the kit and computer
is has been established. It is automatically verified once a program is
transferred from the computer to the microcontroller successfully.

2. To make a new project:

Project New

Specify a Name.
Directory where the project is to be stored.
Target family as 80C51.
Click Next.
Select the target device as: Atmel-AT89S52, or Philips-
P89C/V51RD2xx.

 Clock on Finish

3. The place on the left hand side is the project window. It shows all the
details about the project.

4. To create new file: File New C File.

5. Write your code into the window on the right and save it.

6. Right click on your project name in the project window and click on Add
node source/application.

7. Brows the saved C-File and click ok. This includes the C-File in the project.

 Programming the microcontroller P89C/V51RD2BN using Philips Flash Magic

1. Open the Philips flash magic software.

2. Make the following setting in the software:
Select the appropriate COM port where the kit is connected.
Select the Baud rate (Generally keep it at 9600)
Select the device (89C51RD2xx or 89V51RD2) according to the
microcontroller place on board.
Place a tick on Erase all flash
3. Brows your codes .HEX File I the hex file space.

4. Click on the Start button.

8051DK-6x10 Manual Page 13

 5. The software gives a message Reset the device in ISP mode now (in case
of 89V51RD2)

6. Turn the kit off by pressing the pushbutton switch (AC/DC) switch and then
switch it on. The above box disappears and the hex file gets transferred.

ALTERNATIVELY

6. At this point press the BOOT switch on the kit. Reset the device by
pressing the RESET switch (while keeping the BOOT switch pressed), and
then release the BOOT switch. The above window disappears and the .HEX
file is transferred to the microcontroller.
7. After the software shows Finish (bottom right of the window) Press
RESET switch to execute your program.
8. In case of 89C51RD2xx, select this device, locate the hex file, follow STEP 6
(above) and then press start button on the software.

Sample codes
Code 1
This code will blink LEDs connected at Port 1 alternatively.

Change the numbers 0xaa and 0x55 to change the pattern of the LEDs.

# include<reg51rx.h>

main()

{
int t;
P1=0xaa;
for(t=0;t<50000;t++);
P1=0x55;
for(t=0;t<50000;t++);
main();
}

Code 2
This code checks if any of the switches at port 2 is pressed and then blinks the LEDs at port 1.

# include<reg51rx.h>

void prog1();
void delay();

main()

{
int r;
P2=0xff;
if (P2!=0xff)
{

8051DK-6x10 Manual Page 15

 prog1();
}
}

void prog1(void)

{
P1=0x00;
delay();
P1=0xff;
delay();
main();
}

void delay(void)

{
int t;
for(t=0;t<50000;t++);
}

Code 3

# include<reg51rx.h>

main()

{
int t,i,u;
static code char num[] = {0x7e,0x48,0x3d,0x6d,0x4b,0x67,0x77,0x4c,0x7f};
for(i=0;i<10;i++)
{
P0=num[i];
for(u=0;u<20;u++)
{
for(t=0;t<50000;t++);

8051DK-6x10 Manual Page 16

 }
}
i=0;
}

Code 4
Set the baud rate on hyper-terminal at 9600 bps
/************************************************************/
/* this displays how to serially communicate without printf */
/************************************************************/

#include<reg51rx.h>

void comsend(char *);

void cominit();

void main()
{
cominit();//initialize UART for communication
comsend("Hello World");//send the string
while(1);//stop
}

void cominit()
{
TH1=-3;//timer 1 used as baud rate generator, gives 9600 baud
TMOD=0x20;//timer 1 in mode 1
TR1=1;//start timer 1

SCON=0x50;//intialize UART
}

void comsend(char *dat)//read data

{
char data temp;//temporary
for(temp=0;dat[temp];temp++)//count characters in the string
