Lets get a quick overview of mbed.

http://mbed.org/

After you have signed in, you have to choose your board from the Homepage (click on add to mbed). Then click on "Compiler" on the upper right corner, to start.

Now you will get a window with the editor, compiler and builder, where you can create programms for your Freedom Freescale board.

1: Click on New.

2: Choose your board and if you want a demo code. Then choose a name for the project.

3: Now you have created a project.

4: Now add you librarys, new .cpp files and board files, by using "Import" and "New".

5: You can now create your main code in the Main.cpp.

6: You may want to check some demo codes first.

7: After you wrote your code, click on compile

8: mbed will compile the code and build it if the compiling was succesfull.

9: If it was succesfull, you can download a .bin file, which you need to drag and drop into to Board folder in your explorer ( It will appear when you plug your board with the SDA usb port into your computer)

If not, it will show you your mistakes

10: tadaaa, that was easy :)

How to flash the .bin file onto your board:

After you have connected the board to the computer throught the SDA USB port, the Computer will install some drivers. Now you should be able to see the board at the explorer. Open it. Now just drag and drop the .bin file into the folder.

That was it, it should start the flash process now...

(delete old files before flashing it again!!)
