Waveform Window
• User defined events are defined using the $vcdplusevent
command (refer to
System Tasks and Functions on page 17-3).
You can specify the type of event as a text string and the shape
and color of the event marker for up to 244 different combinations.
When you place the cursor on the event marker, the signal name
and the event string appear in the status bar.
To enable glitch unique events in interactive mode, toggle recording
of unique events in the Interactive Window by selecting Record Glitch
Events from the Sim Menu. Actual recording starts at the beginning
of the next time sample. If you are at or past the time for which you
want to record glitch events, turn on Record Glitch Events then from
the Sim Menu select Re-Exec to rerun the simulation. In post-
processing mode you must enable reporting of unique events in the
VCD+ file using $vcdplusglitchon for glitch events and $vcdplusevent
for user defined events. For more information, refer to
System Tasks
and Functions on page 17-3.
