Step 22.
Select
CONT
from the toolbar to resume execution of the simulation. When the simulation hits
the breakpoint, it stops running, highlights the Source window and issues a message in the
Transcript window.
Step 23.
Typically when a breakpoint is reached you will be interested in one or more signal values.
There are a few ways to determine this. You can:
• look at the values shown in the Signals window, or
• examine the current value of the signal count by typing:
examine count
Perhaps more usefully, you can ask Model
Sim
to automatically issue the
examine
command
when the breakpoint is reached.
