Part IV: Debugger Description contains detailed information about using
the debugger. Chapter 7 explains how to invoke the DSK debugger, and
use its function keys, and debugger commands.
Part V: Appendices contains a description of the communications kernel
source code, the DSK circuit board dimensions and schematic diagrams,
the data sheet of the TLC32040 that provides all specifications of the ana-
log interface circuit, and a glossary.
Program listings, program examples, and interactive displays are shown
in a special typeface similar to a typewriter's. Examples use a bold
version of the special typeface for emphasis; interactive displays use a
bold version of the special typeface to distinguish commands that you
enter from items that the system displays (such as prompts, command
output, error messages, etc.).
Here is a sample program listing of a bit file generated by the accumulator:
0x00809800 directive
0x00809800 0x00000001
0x00809801 0x00000002
0x00809802 0x00000003
Here is an example of a system prompt and a command that you might
enter:
C:\dsk3a testa
In syntax descriptions, the instruction, command, or directive is in a bold
typeface font and parameters are in an italic typeface . Portions of a syntax
that are in bold should be entered as shown; portions of a syntax that are
in italics describe the type of information that should be entered. Syntax
that is entered on a command line is centered in a bounded box. Syntax
that is used in a text file is left-justified in an unbounded box. Here is an
example of command-line syntax:
dsk3a is a command. The command invokes the assembler and has one
parameter, filename , which is required. When you invoke the assembler,
you supply the name of the file that the assembler uses as input.
.word 1,2,3
<word>
<word>
<word>
dsk3a filename
