  1. Infinity Project Laboratory Setup

  2. Lab Requirements • PCs: running Windows 95 or later with at least 8 MB memory and a sound card • Optional: Internet connection • USB Port for SPEEDY-33 DSP board • Adequate power outlets in laboratory room (one for speakers) • Recommended – no more than 2 students per PC

  3. Setting Up – Overview • Check for equipment in Infinity Technology Kit • Install software • Connect SPEEDY-33 board to PC via USB • Make power connection • Make speaker/microphone connections • Make camera connection • …and you’re ready to roll!

  4. Installing Software • Insert the VAB software CD-ROM into the PC’s CD-ROM drive • Allow the CD-ROM to auto-run and follow instructions on the screen • Install camera software following instructions supplied with camera

  5. Installing Hardware • Unpack the following from the Infinity Technology Kit • SPEEDY-33 DSP board • Speakers and microphone • Camera • Connect USB to PC back panel and DSP board

  6. Installing Hardware (cont.) • Connect DSP USB to PC USB Port • Connect speaker cable to the Output port • Connect microphone to the Input port

  7. The SPEEDY-33TM DSP Board Floating Point DSP Memory: 34kW On-chip Performance: 150 MFLOPS USB interface to PC Stereo Channel A/D, D/A Sample rate to 48 kHz Two on-board microphones CD/stereo line-in interface jacks 8 software-controlled LEDs and software-readable switches Flash memory for self-standing operation Battery power possible Low Cost

  8. This is what it should look like…

  9. Finalizing the installation • After installing the software and connecting the hardware: • Log onto your computer as an administrator (Windows NT/2000/XP users only) • Start VAB (under Programs-VAB for Infinity-VAB) • Allows VAB to “recognize” all blocks for use in experiments

  10. Testing the System • On computer, start VAB (under Programs-VAB for Infinity-VAB) • Go to “Testing the System” Laboratory • Open and go through lab worksheets (e.g. Mic and Cosine test) and make sure everything works as indicated • If you have problems, post questions on the Discussion Board at the Infinity Project website

  11. Digital Music Setup • Some of our best digital music designs (e.g. in Chapter 2) utilize MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) • MIDI-based VAB worksheets accept MIDI music from the PC • To use MIDI with the Infinity Technology Kit, you must install two freeware programs • MIDI-OX and MIDI-YOKE • See http://www.infinity-project.org/MIDI.pdf for complete installation instructions

  12. Further Installation Support • The Infinity Technology Kit is designed for ease of use and installation • If you do have technical questions, use the message forum at http://www.infinity-project.org/tech_kit_discuss.html
