Is there away to set the KDS to erase only the sectors that it needs to flash (code warrior does this)

I put data in the last sector of flash that I for the application its inconvenient to have to reload the data every I make change to code and reload to debug

the checkbox to always mass erase has no effect

Hi Don,

Please take a look at the following post created by our colleague Erich Styger, it explains how to preserve memory areas of Flash:

Hope it helps.

Hi Don,

I agree that the KDS is always mass erasing even when unchecking the checkbox.

I will submit an error ticket about this feature.

I see the same result via OpenSDA or PEMicro on FRDM-K64F120M.

Regards,

David
