ColdFire 5484 R/W line will not return high

I have posted this in the CodeWarrior forum as well.

I am having a difficulty with the R/W on the ColdFire 5484. When I write to a location that falls within one of the address spaces of a FlexBus chip select, the write line goes low and never returns high. From all I can tell the the FBCTL registers and PAR_FBCTL registers are set appropriately. For starters, I have used the M5485 stationary that comes with CodeWarrior and inserted the line:

*(uint16 *)0xFE000000 = 0x5555;

after the declaration of ch in main.c. The settings of the relevant registers are:

PAR_FBCTL = 0x5577

CSAR0 = 0xFE00

CSMR0 = 0x001F0001

CSCR0 = 0x00001980

When I first begin debugging M5485 UART SRAM, PPDSDR_FBCTL has the value 0xFD indicating that the R/W line is high. Once I execute the line that writes to 0xFE000000, PPDSDR_FBCTL has the value 0xF8, indicating the R/W line is low and retains that value indefinitely. I have tried the same operation on a board we have developed and have gotten the same result, and I have also used equipment to confirm the status of the R/W line. Is there something that I have overlooked in configuring the chip? FYI, I am using CodeWarrior 5.7.1844 with the P&E Parallel BDM. We use the M548xEVB Lite Board with a MCF5484 and use a MCF5484 on our in house developed board as well.

Thanks in advance,

Between bus cycles, the R/W* line will continue to be driven in it's previous state until the next bus cycle in which it needs to be changed.

Thanks for the reply mnorman. That makes sense, I just never came across anything that identified explicitly as to how it operated.

Thanks again,
