I am a begginer to codewarrior. I would like to load raw assembly programs and then work my way up to C++, but I am not sure how to communicate with my device. I am just starting out with simple programs that "make" (assemble) just fine. I have tried the different communication options by the advice of one book (HCS12/9S12 An Introduction to Hardware and Software Interfacing by Han-Wuay Huang) and some guides on the internet. So far I can only do full chip simulation, which is helpful. I am used to ASMide and this is quite a bit more involved. I believe I have narrowed the options down to: "Set Connection" under component to serial monitor then "Connect" under Monitor HCS12. I am stopped right before the "Derivative Selection dialog box" appears. This may be due to improper baud rate. I believe I should be using 9600, but I cannot find the place to change this. Or I may not have a proper system clock set up on my device. I noticed that the book I am referencing sets up a system clock subroutine to initialize the phase lock loop circuit. I left this out of my original assembly code because I could not define the label of my subroutine even with XREF, which is another problem all together but it may be relevant. Thank you for your patience.
I found useful information on the website of the developer of my board (www.evbplus.com). It turns out my chip was shipped with D-Bug12 monitor. I understand that Codewarrior requires serial monitor and a factory test program. Is it possible to have D-Bug12 monitor and serial monitor installed simultaniously on a single chip? If not, does anyone know of a equal or higher end quality development board that is compatible with codewarrior? I think learning C would be much more fun from a I/O interfacing perspective, as assembly was. Eventually I would like to learn how to implement and explore computer vision of all kinds. Thanks.
