which confirms that a trace is started.
The th (trace halt) command allows you to halt a trace measurement.
When the th command is entered, the message "Emulation trace
halted" is displayed.
Enter the ts (trace status) command to view what the analyzer is doing
(or what the analyzer has done if the trace has completed).
The first line of the emulation trace status display shows that the user

"running" or that the trace has been "halted". The word "NEW" indi-
cates that the most recent trace has not been displayed. The word
"User" indicates that the trace was taken in response to a t command;
the other possibility is that a "CMB" execute signal started the trace.
The "Arm ignored" line shows that the arm condition, which can be
used to qualify trace measurements, is ignored. Consequently, the
