Chapter 5: Configuring the Emulator
Setting the Debug/Trace Options
To trace background cycles
• Answer "background" or "both" to the "Trace background or foreground
operation?" question.
Answering "background" specifies that the analyzer trace only background cycles.
This is rarely a useful setting for user program debugging.
Because the background monitor is implemented using the 68340 background
debug mode (BDM), only memory accesses are captured when tracing background
cycles.
Answering "both" specifies that the analyzer trace both foreground and background
cycles. You may wish to specify this option so that all emulation processor cycles
may be viewed in the trace display.
