S19 ‘S19’ is the file extension used for the Motorola binary image format. The S19
file encapsulates the binary image as a list of ASCII records. Each record
contains a length -, address -, data - and checksum field. The 16 bit address field
allows a memory space for up to 64 KB. The S19 can be generated with
Metroworks Codewarrior IDE and is the product from the linking process. S19
does not contain additional information to a debugger (where to look for source
files).
Safe Mode Boot The Embedded Bootloader boots up using safe default system values.
