Getting Started
Make sure you have the software installed on your PC and the evaluation
board is ready to use. For details refer to the Hardware and Software
Installation chapters. This chapter uses the available examples to
illustrate some features of Softune Workbench.
3.1.
Using the Starterkit
To work with the starterkit, you need to download and program a
software into the flash-ROM of the CPU provided on the CPU-board. To
get started, there are a two different possibilites :
1. Using
the
interpreter) – this allows to get familiar with all the features of the
graphic controller.
2. A stand-alone project developed with "Softune Workbench". Use one
of the example projects provided as a basis for your own software.
We recommend to use the "API-commander" software first to get familiar
with the features of the graphic controller. This software is a basic
command interpreter which communicates with a terminal program on
your PC and allows to execute all commands from the "Cremson graphic
driver API" as well as some additional commands. Locate the
"APIcommanderVxx.mhx"
directory and follow the next steps to download this software to your
evaluation board.

Please check weather your system is already pre-programmed !

Downloading Software
Before downloading any software to the CPU, make sure you have a
hex-file "name.mhx" available and your project settings are correct (CPU-
type, linker-settings etc.).
You will find a flash-programming tool "MB91360 Flash Programmer"
after the installation. Please do not use any other tool for flash
programming. A damage of the internal flash memory of the CPU may
result.
