Debug MC9S12XEP100 with CodeWarrior 5.2

sjehring — Tue, 03 Mar 2020 16:31:13 GMT

Hello everyone,

i try to debug a custom board with a MC9S12XEP100 using the PE Micro MULTILINK UNIVERSAL and Codewarrior Development Studio for the S12(X) Version 5.2 build 151127. My OS is Windows 10.

In the IDE i choose P&E USB BDM Multilink and run Debug. Code Load seems to be successfull and the device is started. Then I get the ILLEGAL_BP Statement. I'm not able to halt the device or stop at a breakpoint.

With Codewarrior 5.1 and the old indart-ONE Debugger the same project works fine.

After that I retried with the MULTILINK and I get another behavior. Now Code Load Fails with following error:

"Error while writing to 7F10..8110"

For Details see have a look at the logs below.

I also tried creating a new Project. With no changes made it produced the same output.

I also installed latest Driver for MULTILINK, reinstalled CodeWarior, tried the "Patch for (S)12(X) 3rd Party Software " (FAQ ID # 211 at PEmicro) and tried another PC. There were no behavior changes.

As anyone an idea why the behavior changed for the same Project ?

From where does the Debugger get the Information shown after Block Module Name

0 DFLASH          FFFFFF -1FFFFFD   Skipped - Unselected
   1 PFLASH          FFFFFF -1FFFFFD   Skipped - Unselected
   2 PFLASH          FFFFFF -1FFFFFD   Skipped - Unselected
   3 PFLASH          FFFFFF -1FFFFFD   Skipped - Unselected

and why does this output Change without changing the Project ?

0 DFLASH             800 -1F0BFF   Blank - Unselected
   1 PFLASH            4000 - 7FFF   Blank - Unselected
   2 PFLASH            C000 - FFFF   Blank - Unselected
   3 PFLASH          C08000 -FFBFFF   Blank - Unselected

What does the following output mean ?

FP: Call of a command not implemented!
Please modify "flags" in DFLASH module INFO applet.

Thanks in advance.

Below you find the different log outputs:

I get the following log with MULTILINK Debugger:

With some help I found a solution. I added an 1k resistor between Reset and TVCC. Now Debugging works realiable.
