Displaying Memory Contents In Realtime; Opening The [Monitor] Window - Renesas H8 Series User Manual

Displaying Memory Contents in Realtime

Use the [Monitor] window to monitor the memory contents during user program execution. In the Monitor
function, the realtime operation is retained since the bus monitoring circuit of the emulator sets the read/write
signal of the MCU as a trigger and holds the address bus and data bus values to update the displayed contents of
the memory.
Up to eight points can be set by using the eight monitoring channels on the bus monitoring circuit. 1 to 256 bytes
can be monitored at one point. It is possible that a part or all of monitoring ranges is overlapped.
Note: Monitoring is impossible for an area, such as an internal timer counter, where no internal read/write
signal is generated to update a value.
