5.4 Hardware Installation
The following steps are used to set up the hardware (see Figure 5–2):
1) Connect the 18 V power supply to the MSPSI and connect the mains pins
to a 120 V, 60 Hz ac source.
2) Connect one end of the IEEE1284 parallel cable to the MSPSI board and
the other end to the PC parallel port.
The red (power) LED should be ON. The yellow (Emul/Prog) LED comes ON
when entering into emulation mode or during programming. The green (target)
LED is ON if the MSPSI is connected to a target board that has power applied.
