Using the emulator

This chapter describes the driver-specific options and settings needed for

using the C-SPY PC7501 or Compact Emulator debugger system. The chapter

also describes how to use the debugger. The application can be run in real time

when using these features, which provides a powerful tool for locating

problems in the application or the hardware.

Note: Not all options and features apply to your particular combination of

emulator debugger and microcontroller. Refer to the documentation for your

emulator.

Setting up the debugger system

Before you start the C-SPY debugger you must set up the generic options for the

debugger system. For information about how to do this, see the chapter Setting up C-SPY

hardware debugger systems in this guide. When this is done, you must set the

emulator-specific options. To set emulator options, choose Project>Options and click

the Communication tab in the C-SPY Debugger>PC7501 Emulator or the C-SPY

Debugger>Compact Emulator category, respectively.

COMMUNICATION

With the options on the Communication page you can modify the behavior of the

communication with the emulator.
