Finally, select all the available example projects,
deselect “Copy projects into the
workspace”
and then click on ‘
Finish’
.
in case you want to have the same project imported multiple times independently you
need to unpack it into distinct directories and import these individually as the code needs
to get referenced instead of copied.

6.5 Terminal setup
A terminal application must be executed from the development PC to interact with the
Kinetis board. Any terminal supporting a serial port interface can be used.
In this document, Tera Term is used and can be downloaded from [TERA_TERM]
[2]
.
The setup wizard will guide the user through the installation. The standard installation
can be chosen for this purpose. Once it is finished, Tera Term can be started.
6.6 OpenSDA configuration
OpenSDA is a serial and debug adapter built into the Kinetis board. It provides a bridge
between the development PC and the Kinetis MCU, which can be used for debugging,
flash programming and serial communication all over USB.
Note
: This section explains how to install the correct OpenSDA bootloader firmware
version to the Kinetis FRDM-K64F board. This needs to be done for debugging, flash
programming, and serial communication over a single USB connection between a host
and an embedded target processor. If this section is not followed carefully, it is possible
the examples will not be executed.
