56F8367EVM Kit Installation Guide

Welcome!

Thank you for choosing this Freescale Development Tools product, featuring the
CodeWarrior Integrated Development Environment (IDE). This document pro­vides instructions on how to set up the Freescale 56F8367 Ev alua tion Mo dule
(EVM) with the CodeWarrior IDE . This EVM supports appl i cation evaluation and
development for the following processors: 56F833x, 56F834x, 56F835x,
56F836x, and 56F813x, 56F814x, 56F815x, 56F 816x.

Parallel Port

1. Connect the DB25 end of the parallel cable to the parallel port
on your computer.

2. Connect the DB25 receptacle end of the parallel cable to th e
parallel port connector labeled P2 on the 56F8367EVM.

Tutorial: Creating a Code Warrior Project

1. Launch the CodeWarrior IDE.

2. Select File > New.

3. Select Processor Expert Stationery and give your projec t
a name (a project with the .mcp extension will be created).

4. Click OK in the New window.

5. Select MC56F83xx > MC56F83 67 from the New Project
window and click OK ( please refer to Se ct ion 4 if using an
alternate DSC).

The project window open s and displays the file contents of
your new CodeWarrior project.

6. Choose Project > Make.
Processor Expert generates appropriate initialization and
configuration files.

7. Expand the User Modules folder in the proj ect window by
clicking on the plus (+) sign.

8. Double click projectname.c to open it.

9. Add any additio nal cod e as indicated by comments:

/*write your own code here*/

10. Save your change an d close the editor window.

11. Choose Project > Debug.

Y our code downloads to the 56F8367EVM and the program
will stop at main() (which appears in the source pane of the
debugger wi ndow).

12. Choose Project > Run (F5) and your program will continue
execution until the next breakpoint is encountered.

The 56F8367 Digital Signal Controller (DSC) is a feat ur e sup er set of
the 56F833x, 834x, 835 x, 836x and 56F813x, 814 x, 815x, 816x con­trollers. The 56F8367EVM was, therefore, designed to support soft­ware development for all of those DSCs. Users can work with this
EVM and simply not utilize those features not present on the alternate
DSC. The best way to disable the se features is to use Processor
Expert. In step 5 of the Section 3, instead of selecting the MC56F8367
stationary, the user should select the DSC that will be used in the final
application. For example, if the application is intended for the 56F8346
DSC, then the user would select M C56F83xx > MC56F8346 station­ary.

In this example Processor Expert will only allow the user to select fea­tures tha t are present on the 56F8346 controller while allowing gener­ated code to execute on the 56F8 367 EVM.

Additional Information:

1. CodeWarrior debugger mus t be told the 56F 8367EVM is being
used when selecting station ar y for an y D SC ot her than the
56F8367.
Steps:

a Once a ne w pr oj ec t is create d an d lo ad ed i n I DE, s el ec t Edit
b Select Debugger > M56800E target settings

Software Development using alternate DSCs

> Target Setting (Alt + F7)

c Change Initialization file name to 56836x_flash.ctg

or 56836x_ext_xp.ctg (depending on target)

dClick OK

2. Processor Expert Flash security functionality may not
work properly due to the differences in memor y s izes
between the 56F8367 DS C and the other controller.
It is recommended that functionality be tested on the final
hardware/application.
