EK Lite

The mini CD included with the EK302DL also contains a lite version of the previous GUI

together with its source code. The source code can be found in the directory:

($Home)\STM\EK302DL\EK302DL_lite, where ($Home) is the directory in which the

software that came with the evaluation kit was installed (C:\Program Files by default).

The purpose of the lite version is to provide the user a base for the development of a

customized application.

The lite version of the evaluation kit is started by launching the EK302DL Lite executable file

located in the EK302DL > Executables folder.

An example of the GUI of the EK lite application is shown in Figure 21.
