In this quick start guide, you will learn how to set up the TWR-PXR40 module and run 
the included demonstration software. For more detailed information, please see the user 
manual found on the included DVD or at

Quick Start Guide

Connecting the 
TWR-SER

Insert the TWR-PXR40 and TWR-SER 
boards into the primary and secondary 
elevator board. The “primary” and 
“secondary” cards for each module are 
indicated along the card edges.

Powering Up the 
TWR-PXR40 

Connect the TWR-PXR40 board to a 
computer or a wall charger using the 
provided USB cable. Additionally, the  
USB connector on the primary elevator  
or OSJTAG connector can be used to 
power up the board.

Using the Serial  
to USB Bridge   

The MC9S08JM60 serial to USB bridge 
solution provides an RS-232 equivalent 
connection to the host computer through 
the USB communications device class. 
When plugged in and powered, the USB 
connection will enumerate as a COM 
port on the PC. To determine the COM 
port number for the connection, right 
click on the My Computer icon and select 
“Manage,” click Device Manager, find  
and expand ports (COM and LPT).

Installing the  
Software Driver   

When the cable is plugged in for the first 
time, then Found New Hardware Wizard 
will start. Select the option Install from a
