Introduction
This CD-ROM contains a number of HEW and compiler toolchain installations; see versions.txt (located on
the CD) for details of versions and the time limits associated with each toolchain.
This CD-ROM is supplied with the following full HEW products:
S32HEWMCSH8 – HEW with Renesas H8 compiler tools
S32HEWMCSSH – HEW with Renesas SH compiler tools
S32HEWNC30 – HEW with Renesas R8C & M16C compiler tools
S32HEWNC308 – HEW with Renesas M32C compiler tools
With each product purchase we supply a Purchase Verification Code, located on the jewel case. Each Purchase
Verification Code entitles you to apply for ONE software license key from Renesas Technology Europe Ltd. Users
may install all components for evaluation purposes for the duration of the time limits imposed but Renesas
Technology Europe Ltd are only able to provide ONE unlimited license key for the compiler toolchain which has
been purchased.

All manuals are supplied in PDF format. Each toolchain has a separate set of manuals that are copied to the hard
drive at install time. The installer will add a link to the appropriate index on the start menu. The HEW IDE software
has its own manual describing the debugger and code-builder functionality.

If no previous installation of HEW has been detected you
will be asked for the destination folder. It is
recommended that you choose the default location.
If a previous installation is detected this step is skipped.
The HEW4 installation will deploy to the same location

e Receive and install the license key
Once we have processed your registration and accepted it we will email you the “License Key” for the compiler
toolchain you have purchased. This can be installed into the toolchain at any time before or after the time limit has
expired.
Upon receipt of the email, copy the license code to the Windows clipboard ensuring that the email system has
added no breaks or spaces – if it has, copy the code to a text file and remove them.
Each of the compiler toolchains that use license keys has a separate key installation program. Select the
appropriate one from the Start Menu.
Note: The key will only work with the toolchain that you have purchased and cannot be used to unlock any other.
When you launch the key installer program a dialog
box will appear confirming which installer you have
launched.
Click “Next”.
The second dialog box allows you to enter the
license code.
Select the edit box and paste in the license code.
Click the “Install” button and the license key will be
installed in your compiler toolchain, the product is
now activated.
If you experience problems with your license key
please contact support at the address provided in
the email sent to you with the key.
