InterNiche Network Integration Kit for Coldfire 5208EVB

[ Click here for the files ]

This is the ReadMe file detailing how to download a binary demo of the Interniche NicheStack TCP/IP Stack, Telnet Server, HTTP Server, HTML DEMO and FTP Server on the Motorola M5208EVB ColdFire Evaluation Board using Freescale's CodeWarrior Development Studio for ColdFire, version 6.1.

As per the Freescale M5208EVB Getting Started guide, the board needs to be connected to the PC running the CodeWarrior toolset via the P&E Micro BDM interface cable. A serial cable needs to be connected between the Terminal Port (UART0) and an unused COM port on the PC. The terminal emulator on the PC (such as Hyper- Terminal) should configure the COM port for 115200 baud, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.

  1. Copy the entire Demo directory tree onto your Local Hard Disk before you evaluate the demo. This is necessary since the Freescale CodeWarrior IDE will create some temporary files and directories on you Local Hard Disk inside this Demo directory.
  2. In the Demo directory, you will find a CodeWarrior Project file called mcf5208.mcp. Double click on this file to open the project.
  3. Click on the RUN button (or enter Ctrl + F5, or in the pull down menu select "Project" -> "Run") to start downloading the code. This downloads the code and starts executing the demo. The user should see the INET> prompt on the Terminal emulator window.
  4. The Demo would have started executing by now and you will see NO further messages on the debugger console window.
