2 Prepare your laptop
This section explains how to get your laptop prepared to execute the SE050 Plug & Trust
middleware. To do it, you need to install the following software tools:
1. Visual Studio Community 2017
2. CMake
3. Python 2.7.15 version 32 bit
2.1 Install Visual Studio Community 2017
Visual Studio is Microsoft's fully-featured IDE for Android, iOS, Windows, web, and cloud.
Visual Studio 2017 introduces rich support for CMake, including cross-platform CMake
projects. To install Visual Studio 2017:
1. Go to Visual Studio site.
2. Select (1) Windows and click on Community 2017 in the Download Visual Studio
button as shown in Figure 1:
Figure 1. Download Visual Studio IDE
3. An *.exe installer will download to your laptop. Double click on the installer file and
follow the setup wizard until the installation is completed. This process might take a
few minutes. Figure 2 shows Visual Studio installation wizard as an example:

2.2 Install CMake
CMake is an open-source, cross-platform family of tools that helps you build C/C++
projects on multiple platforms using a compiler-independent method. It has minimal
dependencies, requiring only a C++ compiler on its own build system. SE050 middleware
leverages on CMake to generate native makefiles and workspaces that can be used in
the compiler environment of your choice. To install CMake:
1. Go to CMake downloads page: https://cmake.org/download/

3 Prepare your host platform
This section explains how to get your board ready to execute the SE050 Visual Studio
projects from a Windows machine. You only need to follow the steps related to the MCU
platform you choose for evaluation purposes.
3.1 Prepare your FRDM-K64F board
This section explains how to get your FRDM-K64F board ready to execute the SE050
Visual Studio projects included in SE050 Plug & Trust middleware. For that, you need to
go through the following steps:
1. Install FRDM-K64F SDK.
2. Update FRDM-K64F with DAPLIink firmware.
3. Flash VCOM software to FRDM-K64F.
4. Hardware setup for FRDM-K64F.
3.1.1 Install FRDM-K64F SDK
The FRDM-K64F board SDK is required to compile, build and debug MCUXpresso
project examples. To install the FRDM-K64F into your MCUXpresso development
environment, follow these steps:
1. Go to MCU SDK Builder and click Select Development Board as shown in Figure 21:
Figure 21. Select development board
2. You might be asked to sign-in with your NXP account again. If that is the case, type
your credentials as done in Install MCUXpresso IDE
3. Select (1) FRDM-K64F board from the drop-down list and click (2) Build
MCUXpresso SDK button as shown in Figure 22:

3.1.2 Update FRDM-K64F board with DAPLink firmware
Arm Mbed DAPLink is an open-source software project that enables programming and
debugging application software running on Arm Cortex CPUs. DAPLink runs an open-
source bootloader and enables developers with drag-and-drop programming, a serial port
and CMSIS-DAP based debugging.
Note: To debug MCUXpresso project examples, we need to flash FRDM-K64F with
DAPLink firmware. If your FRDM-K64F board already includes DAPLink firmware, you
can skip these steps.
To flash DAPLink firmware, follow these steps:
1. Go to NXP OpenSDA site
2. Scroll down and select FRDM-K64F board from the Download - OpenSDA bootlader
and application drop down list as indicated in Figure 27:

6. Un-plug and re-plug the USB cable from the SDA USB port without keeping reset
button pressed.
7. Check the category Ports (COM & LTP) from your computer Device Manager to
ensure that new devices have been properly detected and their driver correctly
installed by your computer OS.
