In the H8/300H Tiny, H8/300H Super Low Power, H8/300L Super Low Power
E8 Emulator Debugger included in the product, the items in the Devices
drop-down list have become presented in ascending order. This drop-down
list is provided in the Emulator Setting dialog box that appears when
the debugger is invoked.
1.4 Problems Fixed
The following problems have been fixed:
(1) In R8C/Tiny E8 Emulator Debugger, M16C/Tiny, M16C/62P E8 Emulator
Debugger, and M32C/80 E8 Emulator Debugger
- If the Debugging of CPU rewrite mode is selected in the
Emulator Setting dialog box that appears when the debugger is
invoked, and then changes are made to the contents of the data
flash area using the Memory or Watch window, the contents of the
unchanged data flash area will be restored to the state before
they have been CPU-reprogrammed by the user program.
- When the user program is loaded on the target system, no error
messages may be dispatched even if the area of the user program
is overlaid on the one occupied by E8 Emulator Debugger.
(2) In M16C/Tiny, M16C/62P E8 Emulator Debugger and M32C/80 E8
Emulator Debugger
- "Problem arising from a treatment of the MCU's pin connected
with the BUSY pin on the emulator," RENESAS TOOL NEWS
Document No. 071116/tn3. For details see the Web page at
