Hi, I am new to ARM and CW, and I am finding it very difficult to understand the peripherals using just the processor expert and examples, there does not seem to be any other documentation that I can find. I have used microchip before and there is full documentation of how things work, here I seem to be reverse engineering code to find how to do things.
For example I want to set up the processor clock, the only entry I can find in processor expert is SysTick but this does not give all the options that there are.
How do I do this apart from hoping I can find an example that shows it ? Is there some documentation I don't know about ?, in some freescale documentation it says check with datasheet and userguide for your specific part, but these only give analogue performance etc and do not say anything about functionality.

Solved! Go to Solution.
usually there are two ways to find Codewarrior processor expert manual.
1 under {Codewarrior 10 install }\MCU\Help\PDF\ProcessorExpertHelp.pdf
2. in CW IDE, right click on the bean component, click "help on component"
concern you use kL25, i also suggest you check :
1. KL user guide:
http://cache.freescale.com/files/32bit/doc/quick_ref_guide/KLQRUG.pdf?fpsp=1
2. KL25 reference manual:
http://cache.freescale.com/files/32bit/doc/ref_manual/KL25P80M48SF0RM.pdf?fpsp=1
3. all the other documents can be downloaded here:

Thanks Jun,
That is very helpful, I had not understood how all that help is available from processor expert. I am not really a programmer and a maybe a bit oldfashoned.
I think you ought to put this on the board, I have heard other new people complain about documentation, this is probably what they need.
