Educational Platform Setup
The working configuration of the Educational Platform will vary according to the require-
ments of the shield(s) being used. Requirements for the example exercises contained in
this manual will be described as they are presented. A typical setup consists of One Per-
sonal Computer with One Educational Platform attached and a shield of choice.
Out of the Box setups assume that a Terminal Emulator such as Tera Term or HyperTermi-
nal has been installed on the target PC(s) and that the Educational Platform and Shield are
still in the Kit Box.
This Manual uses Tera Term, it may be downloaded for free from the following link.

one platform and one ZED Shield, depending on the user requirements.

(ESD).

cedure to connect the and ZED Test Shield.
