CodeWarrior Licensing

[aldinafarias]

Hi,

I'm a new freescale user. I bought a Demo9RS08KA8 from Farnell and I already install Code warrior 6.1 and Softec sotware in a XP virtual machine because I'm using Windows 7 and CW didn't work in this environment. Now I have a problem, I want to test my new demo board and I can't because when I try to open Code warrior this message appear: "No valid license key was found ..." I know I should register my product in My Freescale page but I need a product ID and I don't know where I can find it. I have a Box with:

- Demo board;

- A Freescale CD with Code warrior software, demo board manuals and getting started DVD;

- A softec Microsystems CD;

- A USB cable;

- A warrantly card;

So, what should I make to resolve this problem because I really need to begin to use freescale microcontrollers. I'm working in some projects that already have freescale microcontrolers and I never used it, so I must practise some programs, that is why I bought this demo board.

I will apreciate so much your help.

Best regards,

Hi Aldina ,

My recommendation is to get the latest release for RS08KA devices, so you can get the latest updates available.

You can use latest classic edition v6.3 (supports XP OS)

http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=CW-MICROCONTROLLERS&tid=CWH

Or the eclipse release 10.4 Supports XP, Win 7 32-64

http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=CW-MCU10&tid=CWH

You can download the special edition in case you want to test the SW with some Code size limits or to get the eval version with the professional edition 30 day trial license, you can extend this trial period up to 60 days,.more info here:

If for some reason you still need to have a trial license file for Classic version 6.1 , please contact Freescale support team thru a Service Request , I´m sure they´ll send you one CW v6.1

Hope this information helps.
