Support Software
There are many useful programs on the included CD that can make developing projects on
the CME11E9-EVBU easier. You can also download the latest software free from our web
site at:
http://www.axman.com
.
The main programming interface to the CME11E9 board is the AxIDE program for 32-bit
Windows. This program communicates with the board via its COM port and includes a
Terminal window for interfacing with other programs running on the CME11E9, such as the
Buffalo Monitor or the Basic11 interpreter. It is also useful for displaying information from
your own programs that send output to the serial port.
In addition to the terminal interface, these programs also provide an easy to use
programming and configuration interface to the board.
Also on the CD is a free Assembler, C compiler and example source code to help get you
started.
Software Development
Software development on the CME11E9 is performed using the Buffalo Monitor utility to test
and debug your program that is stored in RAM on U5. During this debug phase your
program should be located just above the internal register block, for example $2000 (see the
Memory Map
section for details).
After satisfactory operation your program can be written to the EEPROM in U7 by relocating
the program to start at address $E000 then programming the relocated code into U7 using
the utility software. After setting the appropriate jumpers, your program will start
automatically when the board is powered on.
It is also possible to write your program to the On-Chip PROM of 68HC711 devices installed
in U1 by relocating the program to start at address $D000 then programming the internal
chip memory on the 68HC711 micro-controller using the utility software. You can then test it
on the board or remove the 68HC711 device and install it in your product. Note that a 12
Volt VPP supply is necessary to do this.
