Socket Programming Options Button

The Programming Adapter Connections dialog assistant is designed to facilitate the use of an extensive set of Freescale programming socket adapters. This dialog can be used to get a graphical representation of the signals that must be connected from the BDM header to the pins of the microprocessor. Making these connections lets you establish communication with a given device via a hardware debug interface.

The Socket Programming Options button in the BDM Launch Configuration dialog box takes you to the Programming Adapter Connections dialog box, where you can look up pin connection settings for the selected package type of the target processor. Only available package types for each target processor are listed in the Package drop-down list. Once you have selected a package type, the Adapter Information section provides the part number of the adapter board, the socket number where the processor should be placed, and a pair of header numbers that indicate which connections should be made between them. Immediately below the Adapter Information section you will find a pin layout that displays the required connections between the aforementioned pair of headers.
