Using the Cirrus Logic BBS
Cirrus Logic maintains a BBS (bulletin board system) 24 hours a day for customers to obtain up-to-date
files and information. For the CL-PD67XX, the BBS gives access to utilities, schematics, and software
upgrades.
Cirrus Logic strictly controls access to this BBS. All downloadable files are checked by Cirrus Logic and
customers cannot upload files to any publicly downloadable area.
Follow the steps that follow to download files. If you would like access to more restricted files, or would
like to exchange files with Cirrus Logic personnel on a regular basis, contact your Cirrus Logic represen-
tative to obtain expanded access privileges.
1. Set your communication parameters as follows:
● 8 data bits
● No parity
● 1 stop bit
● Baud rate up to 14,400 bps
2. Dial the Cirrus Logic BBS at (510) 440-9080.
3. When connected, do one of the following:
● Enter your name and password. First-time users can establish an account by entering a name and password
and completing the questionnaire.
● Or, follow the instructions to log on as a ‘guest’.
4. Select [J] Join Product Area.
5. Select [19] 67XX.
6. Select [F] File Menu.
7. You can now choose among the options.
Many BBS files are compressed in a ‘zipped’ file format (using PKZIP.EXE version 2.04G). These files have the
suffix .ZIP appended to their names.They need to be uncompressed after downloading using PKUNZIP.EXE. If
you do not have this ‘unzip’ utility, you can download it in a self-extracting form from the Cirrus Logic BBS —
from any area, download the file called PKZ204G.EXE.
