Sending data to HCS08

[robinnelis]

Hi there,

Bit of a newbie at this, I've spent a few years with the HCS08 MCU but I'm having troubles setting it up so I can constantly send values to it via a file on the PC that is updated every second. I assume this would be done via a serial interface, but the cable I've been provided with is a simple USB-Serial connector. I've tried using this cable and it isn't being detected by CodeWarrior, but shows up in device manager. The demoboard I'm using is the DEMO9S08AW60E

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hello Robin,

How are you sending values from the file?

Since it is coming in device manager (hopefully as a CDC serial port), you can verify your SCI code using teraterm/hyperterm.

I hope you are able to flash the code using CodeWarrior.

Send/receive data from/to the MCU using terminal. This will verify your setup and then you can work on sending data from the file.

If this post helps you, kindly mark it as correct/helpful answer.
