Unable to write values in hardware diagnostics window

[Champaka]

Hi,

        I am working on MPC5125 board. I am using code warrior 5.9 version. I would like to write and read the values to SDRAM locations. I am not able to write the values in the hardware diagnostics window. with the default value i can read the location. But i am not able to change this default value in write tab. Although I am able to do the memory tests. could anyone tell me how to sort this out..

Hello

• Which OS are you running on your host (Windows XP, ...)?
• How did you set up the Configuration page in the Hardware Diagnostics dialog?
  • Processor Family?
  • Target Processor?
  • Target Initialization?

Hello,

• I am using windows 7
• Processor Family - 52xx
• Target Processor - 5125
• Target Initialization - twrmpc5125 configuration file which is present in dbg folder of the project.

I would also like to know if the code warrior supports the DDR2 chip of mpc5125.

OK

The CodeWarrior for MGT V9.2 was not originally validated on Windows 7.

So there might be some problems with some of the features here.

I would recommend you to submit a service request at following URL to get a support engineer to try that out on Windows 7.

New Service Request

Make sure to indicate you are running Windows 7 host and also indicate you are using a MPC5125 as well as the cable you use to connect to the board (USBTAP, ...).

Hi Catherine,

            Even with windows XP i am facing the same problem. I have made the same settings in the Hardware diagnostics window as stated in the previous discussion. I am not able to write values to registers in the hardware diagnostics window.

I could do this easily in MPC5200 processor. I am not able to do this in MPC5125 with code warrior for mobile GT V9.2

Well, i found a solution for this one..

              Unlike previous versions, codewarrior v9.2 does not support the use of "Delete" button from the keyboard to use in the write tab of hardware disgnostics window. After selecting the default value you can not even write new values.

To solve this, select the default value and use the "Backspace" button to delete the contents or right click on the default value of write tab and click delete. Now that the old value is deleted, you can write new values to your write tab.
