Single-Step
When you are using the background monitor, you can direct the
emulation processor to execute a single instruction or a specified
number of instructions.
Breakpoints
You can set the emulator/analyzer interaction so the emulator will
break to the monitor program when the analyzer finds a specific state or
states, allowing you to perform post-mortem analysis of the program
execution. You can also set software breakpoints in your program.
This feature is realized by inserting BRK instructions into user
program. Refer to the "Using Software Breakpoints" section of
"Getting Started" chapter for more information.
Real Time Operation
Real-time signifies continuous execution of your program at full rated
processor speed without interference from the emulator. (Such
interference occurs when the emulator needs to break to the monitor to
perform an action you requested, such as displaying target system
memory.) Emulator features performed in real time include: running
and analyzer tracing. Emulator features not performed in real time
include: display or modify of target system memory; load/dump of
target memory, display or modification of registers, and single step.
Coverage
Coverage memory is provided for the processor's external program
memory space. This memory allows you to perform coverage
Measurements
measurements on programs in emulation memory.
Reset Support
The emulator can be reset from the emulation system under your
control; or your target system can reset the emulation processor.
Watch Dog Timer
You can configure the emulator to disable the watch dog timer.
Easy Products
Because the HP 64700 Series development tools contain programmable
parts, it is possible to reprogram the firmware and some of the
Upgrades
hardware without disassembling the HP 64700B Card Cage. This
means that you'll be able to update product firmware, if desired,
without having to call an HP field representative to your site.
