1. Getting Started with AMX 680001.1 Introduction
The AMX™ Multitasking Executive is described in the AMX User's Guide. This target
guide describes AMX 68000 which operates on the Motorola MC680xx, MC683xx and
all architecturally compatible processors.
Throughout this manual, the term M68000 refers specifically to the Motorola MC680xx
and MC683xx families of processors and all processors which are exact replicas. When
distinctions are not important, the term M68000 is used to reference any processor which
has the general characteristics of these families. When distinctions are important, the
processors are identified explicitly.
The purpose of this manual is to provide you with the information required to properly
configure and implement an AMX 68000 real-time system. It is assumed that you have
read the AMX User's Guide and are familiar with the architecture of the M68000
processor.
Installation
AMX 68000 is delivered ready for use on a PC or compatible running Microsoft®
Windows®. To install AMX, follow the directions in the Installation Guide. All AMX
files required for developing an AMX application will be installed on disk in the
directory of your choice. All AMX source files will also be installed on your disk.
AMX Tool Guides
This manual describes the use of AMX in a tool set independent fashion. References to
specific assemblers, compilers, librarians, linkers, locators and debuggers are purposely
omitted. For each tool set with which AMX 68000 has been tested by KADAK, a
separate chapter in the AMX Tool Guide is provided.
