Running Hello World on the CML5485 Powered by an MCF5485

[ackliph]

I have an Axiom CML5485 powered by an MCF5485.  I have codewarrior and have set up the project for my processor.  I want to know what all I have to change to get "Hello World" to display through the serial port in HyperTerminal.

Thanks.

If you're using CW for ColdFire 6.4, you can use the Project Wizard to create a project that uses the M5485. In the project window's pull-down menu, you'll see a number of build targets: M5485 Console Debug, M5485 UART SRAM, M5485 UART SDRAM, and M5485 ROM. The two build targets with UART in the names are designed to communicate with a serial port's UART at 19200 baud, 8 bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. You need a serial cable to connect the board's serial port to your computer's serial port. Consult the readme.txt file embedded in the project for more information.

I kept tinkering.  I used M5485EVB and selected "EXTERNAL_RAM"  and now my "Hello World" outputs to Hyper Terminal.
