Using Breakpoints
The simplest debugging aid is the program breakpoint, it causes execution to stop when a particular
point in the program is reached. You can then examine the state of the MCU and memory at that point in
the program.
7.7.1 Setting a Program Count (PC) Breakpoint
The program window provides a very simple way of setting a program breakpoint. For example, set a
breakpoint at address H'80C as follows:
•
Right-click in the 2238.c file and select Toggle Breakpoint popup menu at the line containing address
H'80C.
The dot will be displayed there to indicate that a program breakpoint is set at that address.
