2.13.1.3 For [EZ Emulator]

Make settings in the [Trace] category on the Property panel's [Debug Tool Settings] tab.

Figure 2.142

[Trace] Category [EZ Emulator]

(1)	[Usage of trace function]

Only the trace function can be used.

(2)	[Operation after trace memory is full]

Specify the operation to be performed when the trace memory is filled with collected trace data, from the drop-down list below.

Overwrite trace memory and continue execution	When the trace memory is filled, CS+ continues writing trace data over the old data (default).
Stop trace	When the trace memory is filled, CS+ stops writing trace data (but does not stop program execution).
Stop	When the trace memory is filled, CS+ stops writing trace data and stops program execution at the same time.

(3)	[Trace data type]

For this property, specify the type of trace data to be collected from the drop-down list below.

Branch	Source/destination address information of branching during program execution are collected as trace data.
Branch + Data accessNote 1	Source/destination address information of branching during program execution, as well as data information on access events that occurred are collected as trace data.
Data accessNote 2	Data information on access events that occurred during program execution are collected as trace data.

Note 1.

[RX100, RX200 Series]]
Trace data for [Branch + Data access] cannot be collected. Therefore, this item is not displayed in the drop-down list.

Note 2.

[RX100, RX200 Series]]
To collect trace data for [Data access], it is necessary to set address conditions in a point trace. For details about the point trace, see "2.13.4 Collecting an execution history only when conditions are met".

(4)	[Output timestamp]

This property specifies whether timestamp information is added to the trace data to be collected. Specify [Yes] when you want timestamp to be output.

Caution 1.

[RX200 Series]]
If [Branch] is specified in the [Trace data type] property, timestamp cannot be output. If you want it to be output, specify [Data access].

Caution 2.

[RX100 Series]]
This property is fixed to [No] because these microcontrollers do not support the output of timestamp information.

(5)	[Trace clock count source[MHz]]

Enter a count source for the timestamp in the range 0.0001 to 999.999.

Note that if this property is blank, the set value of the [Operating frequency [MHz]] in the [Clock] category of a [Connect Settings] tab is used in place of the count source.
