What file format is this '.hex' file, is it an SRecord?

Also not sure what "-FL" refers too.

Anyway the problem is very likely that the '.hex' file is using global addresses and the debugger is expecting paged addresses.

E.g. 0x7F8000'G == 0xF88000.

How is the .hex file generated, can it be generated with paged addresses instead?

(or can you download a elf file instead?)

Also search the forum for the addresses spaces.

Hello Daniel,

The '.hex' file is a S2 record file.It is generated with paged addresses (Starting at page 'FE') that is 0xFE8000 (0x7F8000G).

We are able to download the '.elf' format file via BDM debugger tool, but not its corresponding '.hex' file.

Is there any CW tool settings are required to download a '.hex' file (S2 record starts at 0x7F8000 address) into MC9S12XS256 micro via PE Micro's BDM interface. The 'FL' stands for floating license.

Thank you.
