Step 1. Install the .rpm package using the following command:

$ cd /mnt/cdrom/software
# yum --nogpgcheck localinstall zio-java-api-*.rpm # Under Fedora

Step 2. The CLASSPATH environment variable should point to the serial library and the ZIO API. A possible command sequence is shown below. This can be added to your .bashrc file.

$ export CLASSPATH=.
$ export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/usr/share/java/RXTXcomm.jar
$ export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/usr/share/java/zio-java-api.jar

Step 3. Test your installation using the Java program available on the CD-ROM at software/TestZio.class. When executed with the following command, it will prompt for the serial device file and will then test access to the board through the Java API.

$ cd /mnt/cdrom/software
$ java TestZio
