Getting started

In order to quickly get started with the Freescale MQX RTOS, please complete the following steps:

Installation

  • Run the self-extracting installer application and proceed according to instructions.
  • In case you change the default installation location (which is C:\Program Files\Freescale\Freescale MQX 3.X), it is recommended to re-compile all core libraries. Otherwise, any time the application is started under debugger, the debugger may ask for a path to MQX source code files.
  • To re-build the libraries, open and build the following CodeWarrior project:

    <install_dir>/config/<board>/build_libs.mcp

  • Please note that updating your installation of the Freescale MQX Software Solution will overwrite the existing installation of Freescale MQX. The update will only overwrite files originally created by Freescale MQX, but not any user-generated files. Make sure to backup the installation directory before installing an update.

Example Applications and Labs

  • Lab Tutorial Demos - Become familiar with Freescale MQX RTOS and how to use the RTCS, USB, and TCP/IP stacks. Also learn how to find errors with Task-Aware Debugging and set up an Ethernet-to-serial bridge. Lab examples are dependent on device family.

    Codewarrior™ Professional Edition (30-day evaluation available) is highly recommended to run the Freescale MQX lab tutorial software. Please note that some may run on CodeWarrior™ Special Edition, dependent on code size.
