Connecting to the Host Computer
Connecting to the Host Computer
To use the HP processor probe you need to:
•
Connect the HP processor probe to a power source
•
Connect the HP processor probe to the host computer via a LAN or
serial connection
•
Set up the host software
•
Connect the HP processor probe to the target system (described in
the next chapter)
HP does not provide a debugger interface to the PowerPC processor.
You must purchase a debugger interface from a third party. Setting up
the host software is not covered in this manual, please refer to the
manuals provided by the debugger vendor.
If you plan to use a version of the PowerPC other than the one for
which your HP processor probe is programmed, you must reprogram
your HP processor probe with the appropriate firmware. See the
"Updating Firmware" chapter (page 69) for instructions on
reprogramming the HP processor probe; see the "readme" file on the
floppy disk for a list of supported processors.
