Using NTK
Normally, you'll connect (tether) your Newton to theMacintosh on which you'll be running NTK. Note, however, that it isn't required that the Newton be connected to theMacintosh while you write and build your applications. If you want to download or debug the application, however, you'll need to connect the two machines. (Trust us, you'll want to download, and you'll need to debug.)
In this section we'll cover how to do this connection. You need to:
1. Specify to NTK how you'll connect the Newton to the Macintosh.
2. Physically connect the Newton to the Macintosh.
3. Download the Toolkit app to the Newton. You'll only need to do this step once, since the Toolkit app will remain on the Newton until you remove it.
4. Set up the connection between NTK on the Mac and the Toolkit app on the Newton by connecting the Inspector. You'll do this step each time you run NTK.
We'll cover these steps one by one. Note that these steps are also shown at the end of a QuickTime movie.
