2.3.3.2 [Debug Tool Settings] tab

You configure the basic settings of the debug tool for each one of the following categories.

 

(1) [Memory]

(2) [Access Memory While Running]

(3) [E2 Expansion Interface]

(4) [Break]

(5) [Trace]

(6) [Mask for Input Signal]

(7) [Step function]

 

(1)

[Memory]

You can configure the memory in this category.

Figure 2.31

[Memory] Category [E1]

(a)

[Memory mappings]

Current memory mapping status is displayed for each type of memory area.

Caution

The memory mapping cannot be added/deleted.

(b)

[Verify on writing to memory]

Select whether to perform a verify check when writing to the memory.

Select [Yes] to perform verification after download or when values are changed in the Memory panel/Watch panel (default).

(2)

[Access Memory While Running]

You can configure the memory access while executing a program (the real-time display update function) in this category. See "2.9.1.4 Display/modify the memory contents during program execution" for details on the real-time display update function.

Figure 2.32

[Access Memory While Running] Category [E1]

(a)

[Access by stopping execution]

For a memory area not accessible during execution of a program (e.g. target memory area/SFR area), select whether to allow access to the area by temporary stopping the execution.

Select [Yes] to allow access (default: [No]).

(b)

[Update display during the execution]

Select whether to automatically update the contents in the Memory panel/Watch panel display while executing a program.

Select [Yes] to update the display automatically (default).

Remark

The display contents of the Memory panel/Watch panel can be updated manually by clicking the button on the panel.

(c)

[Display update interval[ms]]

This property is valid only when the [Update display during the execution] property is set to [Yes].

Specify the interval in 100ms unit to automatically update the contents in the Memory panel/Watch panel display while executing a program.

Directly enter the Integer number between 100 and 65500 (rounding up the fractions less than 100ms) (default: [500]).

(3)

[E2 Expansion Interface]

You can configure the E2 Expansion Interface.

Figure 2.33

[E2 Expansion Interface] Category

(a)

[External trigger input]

Set the settings related to the external trigger input.

You can select different actions for each channel.

<1>

Channel number

The channel number is displayed.

<2>

Use

Specify whether to use the external trigger input for this channel number.

<3>

Input signal

Specify the input signal.

<4>

Action when inputting the external trigger

The action when inputting the external trigger is displayed.

(b)

[External trigger output]

Set the settings related to the external trigger output.

You can select different actions for each channel.

<1>

Channel number

The channel number is displayed.

<2>

Use

Specify whether to use the external trigger output for this channel number.

<3>

Output timing

The output timing is displayed.

<4>

Output signal

The output signal is displayed.

<5>

Pulse width [us]

Specify the pulse width.

(4)

[Break]

You can configure the break function.

See "2.8 Stop Programs (Break)" for details on the break function and this category configuration.

(5)

[Trace]

You can configure the trace function in this category.

Note that this category appears only when the selected microcontroller incorporates the OCD trace function.

See "2.11 Collect Execution History of Programs" for details on the trace function and this category configuration.

(6)

[Mask for Input Signal]

You can configure the input signal masking in this category.

Caution 1.

The settings of the properties in this category are ignored in the case of a hot plug-in connection. That is, the program operates as if the specification for the properties is [No] (the settings of them become valid again after reconnection with CS+).

Caution 2.

Maskable signals differ depending on the selected microcontroller type (a signal that cannot be masked will be hidden).

Figure 2.34

[Mask for Input Signal] Category

 

With the properties shown below, select [Yes] to mask the signal from the drop-down list (default: [No]).

-

[Mask TARGET RESET signal]

-

[Mask INTERNAL RESET signal]

(7)

[Step function]

You can configure the control method of step execution.

Figure 2.35

[Step function] Category [E1]

(a)

[Skip target section]

Select whether to skip the target section.

Select [Yes] to skip the target section (default: [No]).

(b)

[Target section]

This property appears only when the [Skip target section] property is set to [Yes].

To specify a section, select the target property, then open the Specified Section dialog box by clicking the [...] button that appears on the right edge of the field.
