Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 6 This is a very simple guide, reviewing the steps required to get Blinky working on an mbed OS platform.
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 7
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 8 Please install [mbed CLI](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-cli#installing-mbed-cli).
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 9
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 10 ## Get the example application!
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 11
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 12 From the command line, import the example:
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 13
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 14 ```
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 15 mbed import mbed-os-example-blinky
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 16 cd mbed-os-example-blinky
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 17 ```
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 18
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 19 ### Now compile
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 20
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 21 Invoke `mbed compile` specifying the name of your platform and your favorite toolchain (`GCC_ARM`, `ARM`, `IAR`). For example, for the ARM Compiler 5:
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 22
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 23 ```
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 24 mbed compile -m K64F -t ARM
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 25 ```
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 26
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 27 Your PC may take a few minutes to compile your code. At the end you should get the following result:
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 28

Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 50 ### Program your board
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 51
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 52 1. Connect your mbed device to the computer over USB.
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 53 1. Copy the binary file to the mbed device .
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 54 1. Press the reset button to start the program.
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 55
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 56 You should see the LED of your platform turning on and off.

Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 60 ## Export the project to Keil MDK and debug your application
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 61
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 62 From the command line, run the following command:
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 63
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 64 ```
Jonathan Austin 1:846c97078558 65 mbed export -m K64F -i uvision
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 66 ```
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 67
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 68 To debug the application:
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 69
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 70 1. Start uVision.
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 71 1. Import the uVision project generated earlier.
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 72 1. Compile your application and generate an `.axf` file.
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 73 1. Make sure uVision is configured to debug over CMSIS-DAP (From the Project menu > Options for Target '...' > Debug tab > Use CMSIS-DAP Debugger).
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 74 1. Set breakpoints and start a debug session.

Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 78 ## Troubleshooting
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 79
mbed_official 3:297fe5b2279f 80 1. Make sure `mbed-cli` is working correctly and its version is greater than `0.8.9`
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 81
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 82 ```
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 83 mbed --version
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 84 ```
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 85
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 86 If not, you can update it easily:
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 87
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 88 ```
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 89 pip install mbed-cli --upgrade
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 90 ```
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 91
Jonathan Austin 0:2757d7abb7d9 92 2. If using Keil MDK, make sure you have a license installed. [MDK-Lite](http://www.keil.com/arm/mdk.asp) has a 32KB restriction on code size.
