This page provides utility software, such as code downloaders, to help you
get your Handy Board up and running on the particular computer platform
you are using.
Wintel
JBug11 by
John Beatty is a Windows 32-bit monitor/debugger for 68HC11
MCU's. From John's site: Its development was inspired by the
difficulty of running PCbug11 on modern fast processors; and at the
same time provide some of the features expected in a modern GUI
environment, and one or two additional de-bugging tools.

hbdl.exe,
a Windows 6811 Downloader for Windows 3.1 and Windows 95.
Created by Vadim Gerasimov of the MIT Media Laboratory expressly for
Handy Board users!
HBDL for XP. Copied from Griffin University.
dlm.exe,
Fred Martin's MS-DOS 6811 downloader that's configured for
use on Handy Boards with E1 versions of the 6811. Use the
-256 command-line flag to make this program work with the A1
version of the 6811!
Motorola's AS11 assembler, a DOS-based
program for assembling 68HC11 source code into .s19 records that can
be downloaded into the Handy Board.
as11_ic for MS-DOS.
Compile ICB (Interactive C Binary driver) files on your MS-DOS
machine, using Kent Farnsworth's package of tools. The tools allow
you to assemble the pcode.s19 file (which runs on the Handy
Board's 6811) as well as compile ICB files. There is a readme file and a ZIP
archive. Note: This software requires a DOS Protected Mode
Interface (DPMI) driver. If you don't know what this is, just run the
software from within a DOS shell running under Windows, and you'll be
fine. (Wed Aug 20 22:18:30 1997)

xasmhc11, a
freely-distributable Mac version of Motorola's 68HC11 cross-assembler.

Agnostic
config0c.s19, a tiny .s19 file for
reprogramming the 6811's CONFIG register to the value 0x0c, which is
the proper value for use with the Handy Board. Factory-fresh 6811s
have their CONFIG registers set incorrectly, and after a bad hardware
crash sometimes the register will reset to an improper value.
Download this file using any downloader, making sure to put the
downloader in the mode for programming EEPROM, not RAM. The first
time you download this file, you will get a memory error, indicating
the CONFIG register was incorrect. Download the file again, and the
error message should not recur, indicating the CONFIG register has
been correctly programmed.
