The first time you launch the winIDEA program, you will be requested to create a new Workspace:

Add a name, select a Location and press the OK button


As first thing configure the communication to the iSystem device (for our purpose, we've connected the device through TCP/IP connection). Go under Hardware -> Hardware menu and set the following options:

and leave the default port as 5313


You can now test the communication by pressing the Test button under Hardware -> Hardware, Communication tab. The expected result should be something like:

We can now set the type of board we want to use in Hardware -> Emulation Options. Please make sure to select the right board in CPU tab:
