AMX 68000 Target Guide
Creating an AMX ROM
The AMX ROM is created by using the AMX Configuration Generator to produce a
ROM Option Module which is then linked with the AMX Library to form an AMX ROM
image.
The Configuration Generator combines the information in your Target Parameter File
with the ROM Option Template file CJ532ROP.CT to produce an assembly language
ROM Option Module CJ532ROP.ASM.
You can use the AMX Configuration Builder to generate the ROM Option Module. Use
the AMX Configuration Manager to open your Target Parameter File. Make the ROM
Option Module selector the active selector. The ROM Option window will become
visible allowing you to view your ROM option parameters. To generate the ROM Option
Module, select
Generate... from the File menu.
If you are unable to use the AMX Configuration Manager or are creating your ROM
Option Module from within a make file, you can use the stand alone version of the
Configuration Generator. If your Target Parameter File is named
HDWCFG.UP, the stand
alone version of the Configuration Generator utility is invoked as follows:
CJ532CG HDWCFG.UP CJ532ROP.CT CJ532ROP.ASM
The ROM Option Module CJ532ROP.ASM is then assembled in exactly the same manner
as your Target Configuration Module HDWCFG.ASM according to the directions in the
AMX Tool Guides.
The AMX ROM is linked according to the directions in the AMX Tool Guides.
The resulting AMX ROM image file is then committed to ROM using conventional
ROM burning tools. The manner in which this is accomplished will depend completely
upon your development environment. In general, the process involves the transfer of the
AMX ROM hex file to a PROM programmer.
Note that your toolset may require a filename extension other than
.ASM for assembly
language files.
