What’s on the CD-ROM?
Programs
The programs on this CD-ROM will help you learn how to program
small embedded control systems. The directory named Programs contains
all of the programs from the book. Programs from each chapter are
grouped together in directories named Chapter1, Chapter2, etc., where the
number corresponds to the book chapter in which the code is found. The
subdirectory Header~1, or Header Files, contains a series of directories
that contain the specific header files needed to connect your compiled
code to the peripherals found on the indicated chips. These header files
have been used extensively, but you will probably still find an occasional
bug in them. If you do find a bug, please notify me at the email address
below.
There are demonstration compilers for the M6805, the M68HC11, and
the M68HC16 families of chips. The Byte Craft Limited compiler is
placed in directory C6805. Instructions for use of this compiler can be
obtained by merely typing \c6805\c6805 with no arguments and the
instruction sheet will appear.
The two Intermetrics demonstration compilers are placed in
HC11DEMO and HC16DEMO respectively. When using one of these
compilers, the directory name should be placed in the system path. Only
one of the demo directories should be in the path at a time because the two
compilers both use the same function names. Confusion will reign if both
directories are in the path at the same time. In the Software directory, you
will find files named HC16BOOK.TXT and HC11BOOK.TXT. These
files are transcriptions of the books normally shipped with the Demo Kit
packages from Intermetrics. There is no convenient means to copy the
several figures found in these books into these ASCII files. Therefore, the
files are complete with the exception of the figures. The text describes the
contents of the figures. I am sorry for any inconvenience caused by these
necessary omissions. Also, the contents of these books contain discus
sions of how you should install the various programs contained in the
Demo Kits. These compilers are already installed on the CD-ROM, but
the basic programs from which they are installed are found in the directo
ries HC16 and HC11. You can reinstall these demonstration compilers
from the programs in these directories if you wish.
