Hi,
Yes, you need to go into the debugger.
I prefer to run the"True-Time Simulator & Real Time Debugger" independantly. You can do this by running hiwave.exe from the prog directory under your codewarrior install directory.
Once in here, use the menus to establish connection.
When you have a connection there will be a menu named after the connection.
Under here you can choose the "Expert Programmer Mode".
Now you have the normal P&E programmer.
You can get this for HC08 as a seperate programme from pemicro.com
In here you can see the varios options like verify and upload module.
Good Luck!
