How does it work?
The Graphical Configuration Tool (GCT) is a standard Microsoft Windows-based application used to
graphically edit (read and write) project’s appconfig.h file. The register initialization values edited by
graphical controls can be immediately displayed and/or written back to the appconfig.h file.
The appconfig.h file is included by the application source code, and the register initialization values are
used in the “init” functions to physically configure the peripheral module. An initialization function exists
for each module and it is typically invoked using the “ioctl” INIT call (e.g. use the SCI1_INIT ioctl
command to initialize the SCI module 1).

Figure 7-1. GCT Usage
The GCT is able to work as a stand-alone tool, however the integration with the CodeWarrior IDE 10.3 or
higher version markedly increases the tool efficiency. The integration steps, as well as the installation, are
described in detail in Section 1.2.2.1.
