TOWER SYSTEM

The Freescale robot (FSLBOT) kit

operates with the Tower mechatronics

(TWR-MECH) board to create an easy-to-

use mechatronics development and

demonstration platform. It is designed

speciﬁcally to be used and programmed

with StickOS®BASIC. More advanced

users can take programming to new levels

of functionality with the use of CodeWarrior

and Freescale’s Tower System.

TWR-MECH BOARD

Freescale Tower System

The TWR-MECH board is part of the Freescale Tower

System, a modular development platform that enables

rapid prototyping and tool re-use through reconfigurable

hardware. Take your design to the next level and begin

constructing your Tower System today.

How to Use the Mechatronics Robot

Quick Start Guide

Step-by-Step Installation Instructions for StickOS

StickOS BASIC is a programming

language and an IDE. It’s speciﬁcally

designed to allow those with little or no

programming experience to get up and

running quickly with the TWR-MECH

board. It also provides complex

functionality such as vision ﬁlters and

face tracking.

Install StickOS

1. Open an Internet browser of your

choice and navigate to

freescale.com/mechbot

2. Select the “Download” tab. Scroll

through the list of downloads and select

FSLBOT_StickOS_IDE. Click “Download”

and save the file to an easily accessible

place on your computer.

3. Decompress the downloaded file.

TOWER SYSTEM

Configure Drivers

with Windows®XP

1. Ensure “Search for the best driver in

these locations” is selected. Also, the

“Include this location in the search” box

should be checked. Click “Browse” and

navigate to the folder of the recently

downloaded file. Click “OK,” followed

by “Next.”

Connect the USB Cable

1. Plug the included FSLBOT USB cable

into the computer and into the left rear

mini-USB port on the board (labeled

USB OTG).

2. The “Found New Hardware Wizard” will

appear. Choose “Install” from a list or

specific location (Advanced). Click “Next.”

Quick Start Guide

2. The hardware wizard will install the

needed files to run the Freescale

TWR-MECH.

3. Once the hardware wizard has finished,

click “Finish” to complete the installation.

Install CodeWarrior

• Downloadandinstallthelatestversion

of CodeWarrior for ColdFire V2 from

freescale.com.

• DownloadtheCodeWarriorsamplecode

for the Freescale mechatronics robot. This

can be found on the Freescale website

on the right hand side of the TWR-MECH

page under “Featured Software.”

Connect the USB Cable

Connect the USB cable to the PC and the

other end to the J17 on the TWR-MECH

board, also labeled “DEBUG.”

Configure Drivers

Allow PC to automatically configure drivers

if needed. If you have driver problems, please

see the TWR-MECH driver installation guide

located in the sample code folder mentioned

above, or visit pemicro.com/osbdm.

Installation Instructions for CodeWarrior

Launch Software

Launch CodeWarrior for ColdFire V2.

Close the startup box, and click “File >

Open” to open the sample code.

The file path is: TWR_MECH_FSLBOT_

Cadewarrior_Sample_CODE/ mcf5225x_

SC_FreeBot/build/cw/twr-mcf5225x/TWR

_Mechatronics_MCF5225X_base.mcp.

You are now ready to start programming

with CodeWarrior.

Note: On/Off switch must be in “On”

position for the servos to activate.
