QuantiPhi S12:
Frequently Asked Questions

This FAQ is dedicated to answering frequently-asked user questions regarding the QuantiPhi S12 Blockset. Feel free to submit your own questions to: quantiphiS12@simuquest.com.

Which variants of the HCS12 (MC9S12) micro are supported by your product?

To date the following are supported: DP256, DT256, DJ256, DG256, DT128E, DJ128E, DG128E, DG128, DJ128 & DB128. If the variant you need is not listed, please contact us since additional variants are also under development and may soon be supported.

Which compilers are supported by your product?

Both the cosmic CX12 compiler and the Metrowerks HCS12 compiler are supported. We are open to supporting additional compilers if customers have a need for them.

Why isn't the location of my target settings file stored relative to my model?

This was an important design decision for us. In the end, it was more important to be absolutely sure that the user is using the target settings file that they think they are using. If we make the path relative, there is a chance that another settings file will be used instead.

How does QuantiPhi generate a linker (lkf) file for Cosmic's linker?

The provided template makefiles invoke a special program included with QuantiPhi that builds a linker file from a template. See the template linker file for a detailed description of the language it uses.

Why doesn't the QuantiPhi entry in the Blocksets folder of the MATLAB start bar or in the Help Tree always appear?

Save your path after running sqsetpath or sqstartup. This will make sure that MATLAB knows about the product paths as early as possible.
