    c programming, MC68HC11 micro controller board simulator

    hi,
    i have to do a piece of work using the MC68HC11 micro controller board i dont suppose there is a simulator or something i because i dont want to spend ages in college in a hot room i wanna chill at home but i dont have the equipment. I need to make a c program and use the boards and i/o box with lights on to make them do stuff ect.

    You didn't try googling for that, then, did you? The first page of the 16000+ "finds" that google found seems to be good hits all of them, which one is best probably depends on what exactly you want.

    Oh, you need a C cross-compiler which generates 68HC11 code; then a 68HC11 machine simulator.

    the .bat is probably just a script to call on the compiler to compile the code.

    You should be able to use the compiler you have at school to do that - of course, your compiler at school may not be anywhere near "free" to take home. Many commercial compilers use licenses such that you can't just copy the code across and get a working copy - you need a license key to unlock the compiler on a particular machine.

    hmmm well i make the c program which turns the lights on and off blah blah blah
    i open cmd and type cram MYPROG.c it then outputs a txt file called outs19(this file is juts loads of letters and numbers im guessing its hex) i then upload the txt file to the 68hc11 using hyper terminal and the lf command then i use "send text file" once the text file has been sent i then input go 1000 and my program runs
