Configuring the Emulator

Introduction

Your 7700 Series emulator can be used in all stages of target system
development. For instance, you can run the emulator out-of-circuit
when developing your target system software, or you can use the
emulator in-circuit when integrating software with target system
hardware. You can use the emulator's internal clock or the target
system clock. Emulation memory can be used in place of, or along
with, target system memory. You can execute target programs in
real-time or allow emulator execution to be diverted into the monitor
when commands request access of target system resources (target
system memory, register contents, etc).
The emulator is a flexible instrument and may be configured to suit
your needs at any stage of the development process. This chapter
describes the options available when configuring the HP 64146A/B
emulator.
The configuration options are accessed with the following command.
modify configuration <RETURN>
After entering the command above, you will be asked questions
regarding the emulator configuration. The configuration questions are
listed below and grouped into the following classes.
General Emulator Configuration:
– Specifying the emulator clock source (internal/external).
– Selecting monitor entry after configuration.
– Restricting to real-time execution.
