5 DEMOQE TOOLKIT PC APPLICATIONS
P&E provides several Windows PC-based applications which work with the
DEMO9S08QE32 board. These applications are collectively referred to as the
DEMOQE Toolkit. The following applications are included in the toolkit:
5.1 DEMOQE Logic Analyzer Application
The DEMOQE board has a built-in two-channel logic analyzer. This analyzer
allows the IN0 and IN1 signals to be captured by the PC and displayed for the
user. The IN0 and IN1 signals may be connected to any of the MCU signals
which the user would like to view. By default, they are connected to the PTC0
and PTC1 pins of the MCU by jumper J11. At the time of this release, the logic
analyzer runs at a capture rate of 10khz.
DEMO9S08QE32 User Manual 11
Figure 5-1: Logic Analyzer Application
This PC-based application is used to display the logic analyzer data on the
PC. The logic analyzer data is displayed in real-time and each waveform may
be paused, zoomed, and printed.
If the microcontroller-based Quick Start Application is programmed into the
MCU, the IN0 channel will show the PWM output on pin PTC0 whose duty
cycle is controlled by the potentiometer (W1). The IN1 channel shows the
PWM output on channel PTC1 which drivers the buzzer.
This PC-based application is included on the CD-ROM that accompanys the
DEMOQE, and may also be found at:
http://www.pemicro.com/fixedlinks/demoQEtoolkit.html.
5.2 DEMOQE Terminal Application
This PC-based application acts as a standard serial port terminal application
on the PC. It works with standard serial ports as well as the virtual serial port
on the DEMOQE board. The application includes settings to adjust the COM
port number, baud rate, parity, and number of data bits. There is a button to
take a file on the PC and transmit it out of the serial port. There are also
delays which are automatically inserted in the transmission output to prevent
overruns. It is recommended that these defaults not be changed.
12 DEMO9S08QE32 User Manual
Figure 5-2: DEMOQE Terminal Application
The terminal window may be set for full duplex or half duplex. In full duplex

DEMO9S08QE32 User Manual 13
Figure 5-3: DEMOQE Unsecure Application
This PC-based application is included on the CD-ROM that accompanys the
DEMOQE, and may also be found at:
http://www.pemicro.com/fixedlinks/demoQEtoolkit.html.
5.4 DEMOQE Accelerometer Demo Application
This PC-based application will graph serial data output from the
microcontroller-based serial accelerometer application documented in
Section 6.2 - Serial Accelerometer Application. The graphed data includes
the magnitude of the X, Y, and Z accelerometer signals, as well as the current
processor loading. For this application to work properly, the microcontroller-
based serial accelerometer application must be programmed into the
microcontroller which is plugged into the DEMOQE board.
14 DEMO9S08QE32 User Manual
Figure 5-4: Accelererometer Demo Application
The data that is graphed may come from either the PC serial port or the virtual
serial port on the DEMOQE board. The serial port of the microcontroller on
the DEMOQE board is routed to either serial port hardware or the virtual COM
port based upon the setting of jumpers J6 and J7.
This PC-based application is included on the CD-ROM that accompanys the
DEMOQE, and may also be found at:
http://www.pemicro.com/fixedlinks/demoQEtoolkit.html.
5.5 DEMOQE Serial Grapher Application
This PC-based application is a more generalized version of the accelerometer
demo application. It may be used with the microcontroller based serial
accelerometer application or customer microcontroller code which transmits
data in the correct format. The serial graphing utility allows incoming data on
the PC serial port, or one of P&E’s virtual serial ports, to be automatically
graphed in time or displayed upon a series of bar graphs. The virtual serial
port exists on several of P&E’s embedded USB multilink designs including the
DEMOQE board.
This PC-based application is included on the CD-ROM that accompanys the
DEMOQE and may also be found at:
http://www.pemicro.com/fixedlinks/demoQEtoolkit.html.
DEMO9S08QE32 User Manual 15
All data to be displayed must be in hexadecimal format. The data can be
accepted and displayed either as incoming byte values ($00-$FF) or word
values ($0000-$FFFF). The data format indicates whether the data is byte or
word data. The graphical components automatically size their range
depending upon the incoming data.
5.5.1 Visual Components
The Bar Graph has four separate bars A, B, C, and D. On each bar a
percentage value is displayed which indicates the current value relative to the
full range. A byte value of $7F (max is $FF) would show up as approximately
50% as would a word value of $7FFF (max is $FFFF). As can be seen in the
data formatting section, all four bars must be written at the same time. The
bars are shown here:
Figure 5-5: Serial Grapher Bar Graph
The graphing component shows four waveforms X, Y, Z, and W. The
magnitude axis either has a range of $00-$FF (if byte values are incoming on
the serial port) or $0000-$FFFF (if word values are incoming). Each new set
of values which comes through the serial port is added to the far right side of
the graph and the rest of the data values move to the left. The vertical axis
displays the incoming data as the magnitude of each waveform, and the
horizontal axis displays the number of samples. The graph has a limited size,
16 DEMO9S08QE32 User Manual
so older samples will eventually fall off the left part of the graph. As can be
seen in Section 5.5.2 - Data Format, each incoming data command affecting
the graphing component must have new data for all four waveforms. An
example graph is shown here:
Figure 5-6: Serial Grapher Graphing Component
5.5.2 Data Format
The data format is broken into two sections depending upon whether the
incoming data is in byte format or word format.
5.5.2.1 Byte Formatted Data
There are two commands which may be accepted. Both commands must end
in the special characters #$0D and #$0A which are CR (carriage return) and
LF (line feed). The accepted commands are:
WnnZnnYnnXnn
The nn values are 00-FF and correspond in order to the data displayed on the
following graph lines : W, Z, Y, X.
AnnBnnCnnDnn
The nn values are 00-FF and correspond in order to the data displayed on the
DEMO9S08QE32 User Manual 17
following bar graphs lines : A, B, C, D.
5.5.2.2 Word Formatted Data
There are three commands which may be accepted. All commands must end
in the special characters #$0D and #$0A which are CR (carriage return) and
LF (line feed). The accepted commands are:
nnnn,nnnn,nnnn,nnnn
The nnnn values are 0000-FFFF and correspond in order to the data
displayed on both the graph and bar graphs as follows: X/A, Y/B, Z/C, W/D.
nnnn:nnnn:nnnn:nnnn
The nnnn values are 0000-FFFF and correspond in order to the data
displayed the graphing component as follows: X, Y, Z, W.
nnnn=nnnn=nnnn=nnnn
The nnnn values are 0000-FFFF and correspond in order to the data
displayed on the bar graph component as follows: A, B, C, D.
6 DEMONSTRATION MICROCONTROLLER APPLICATIONS
The following microcontroller applications are designed to run on the QE32
processors.
6.1 Quick Start Application
The function of the Quick Start microcontroller application is to play a different
tone and illuminate a different LED for each of the buttons which may be
pressed on the DEMO9S08QE32 board. The potentiometer controls the
intensity of two LEDs on the DEMO9S08QE32 board, via PWM signals. This
application comes pre-programmed into the memory of the QE32 processor.
The source code for this Quick Start Application is included on the CD-ROM
included with the DEMOQE, and may also be found at:
http://www.pemicro.com/fixedlinks/demoQEtoolkit.html.
18 DEMO9S08QE32 User Manual
6.2 Serial Accelerometer Application
This microcontroller application samples the state of the on-board three-axis
accelerometer using on-chip A/D converter channels. This data is converted
into ASCII characters and sent out using the serial pins of the QE32
processor. These serial pins may be connected to either serial port hardware
or to P&E’s virtual serial port (which is part of the Embedded Multilink design).
This connection is controlled by jumpers J6 and J7.
P&E has two PC-based DEMOQE Toolkit applications which allow the serial
port data generated by this application to be graphed. These are documented
in Section 5.4 - DEMOQE Accelerometer Demo Application and Section
5.5 - DEMOQE Serial Grapher Application.
The source code for this microcontroller based Serial Accelerometer
Application is included on the CD-ROM included with the DEMOQE and also
may be found at http://www.pemicro.com/fixedlinks/demoQEtoolkit.html.
7 JUMPER SETTINGS
7.1 System Power
The QE32 processor may obtain its power from either the on-board regulator,
a 2-cell battery pack, or through MCU_PORT J1. The on-board regulator
obtains its input from either the Embedded Multilink circuitry or a 2.5mm barrel
connector. The on-board regulator can regulate the output to either 2.1V or
3V. The DEMO9S08QE32 is fully functional at both voltages. Power input and
voltage selection are achieved by using 3 option headers.
7.1.1 J3 - Regulator Input Selection Jumper
Jumper 3 determines whether the DEMO9S08QE32’s on-board regulator
obtains its power from the DC power jack or from the Embedded Multilink
circuitry. The regulator input selection is mutually exclusive. It prevents power
input contention from damaging the board and the host. Figure 7-1 shows the
regulator input selection details.
DEMO9S08QE32 User Manual 19
Select regulator input from DC power jack. A 5-8VDC center positive
power supply must be used.
Note: The DEMOQE board silk screen is incorrectly labelled as 5-12VDC. The
maximum voltage is 8VDC.
Select regulator input from the Embedded Multilink circuitry,
which derives its power from the USB bus
Figure 7-1: PWR Selection Header (J3)
7.1.2 J4 - Regulator Output Selection Jumper VOLT_EN
The regulator can output either a 2.1VDC or 3VDC voltage for the
DEMO9S08QE32. The VOLT_EN jumper J4 selects the voltage. Figure 7-2
shows the regulator output selection details.
Select regulator output to be 2.1V.
Select regulator output to be 3V
Figure 7-2: Regulator Voltage Output Selection VOLT_EN (J4)
7.1.3 J5 - VDD Source Selection Jumper VDD_SELECT
Select the regulator to supply microcontroller VDD. This is the default
setting.
20 DEMO9S08QE32 User Manual
Select the battery pack to supply microcontroller VDD
Select the MCU_PORT to supply microcontroller VDD. This setting
also allows power to be supplied to the target connected to the
MCU_PORT. By default this jumper is installed.
Figure 7-3: VDD_SELECT Option Header (J5)
7.2 RS232 Communications
The DEMO9S08QE32 integrates an RS232 transceiver for the microcontroller
SCI signals. The transceiver operates from 1.8V to 4.25V, and it can be
enabled or disabled via jumper settings or through firmware control. The
DEMO9S08QE32 also integrates the SCI signal into the Embedded Multilink
circuitry. A user can communicate with the microcontroller SCI module via

10 TROUBLESHOOTING
10.1 DEMO9S08QE32 Is Undetected
Q: The connection assistant indicates that my DEMO9S08QE32 is
undetected even though I have connected the hardware to my USB port.
What should I do?
A: The connection assistant, which displays in either Codewarrior or P&E’s
development software, is a dialog which allows the user to connect to the
DEMO9S08QE32 hardware. If this dialog indicates that the DEMO9S08QE32
hardware is not connected to the PC, the first step is to make sure that the
DEMO9S08QE32 hardware is connected to the PC via a USB 2.0 high-speed
cable. If it is connected, unplug and then plug in the USB cable on the
DEMO9S08QE32 board and click refresh in the connection assistant. If the
hardware still does not show up, try the following remedies:
(A) Re-Enable the USB driver
If you connected the DEMO9S08QE32 interface prior to installing P&E’s
Embedded Multilink drivers, Windows will not have been able to find the
appropriate driver and may have disabled the device. The DEMO9S08QE32
board shows up in Window’s device manager as a “P&E Multilink,” since it
contains P&E’s Embedded Multilink circuitry. If you unplug and then plug in
the device, Windows will automatically disable it even if you have installed the
drivers. To force windows to try to load the driver again, perform the following
steps while the DEMO9S08QE32 interface is connected to the computer:
1. Open the Control Panel (Start Button->Settings->Control Panel)
DEMO9S08QE32 User Manual 33
2. Double Click the "System" Icon
3. Select the "Hardware" tab
4. Click the "Device Manager" Button
5. The "P&E Multilink" device will be shown with an exclamation mark
next to it. Double-click this device.
6. Click the "Reinstall Driver…" button and follow the dialog instructions
to have Windows automatically install the driver.
(B) Re-Install the USB driver
If the Multilink device does not show up in the device manager, use the driver
installation utility located in the DEMOQE Resouces CD-ROM. After driver
installation, unplug the DEMO9S08QE32 from the PC and reboot the PC.
When the reboot has completed, connect the interface to the PC with the USB
2.0 cable. Run the software again to see if the interface is now detected.
If you have an error attempting to install the drivers, please view the
installation troubleshooting FAQ on P&E’s website at:
http://www.pemicro.com/faqs/faq_view.cfm?id=89.
(C) Test for installation of the USB driver files
To test the driver installation, use the driver test utility in the DEMOQE
Resources CD-ROM to make sure all files were properly installed. This may
give some indication of what the problem is.
(D) Using a USB Hub
The DEMO9S08QE32 is a high-power USB device. If a USB Hub is used, it
must be a self-powered hub (i.e., with its own power supply). If the Hub is not
self-powered the DEMO9S08QE32 will not work. In general, USB ports
located directly on the PC are high-power (self-powered) ports.
