Chapter 5: Configuring the Emulator
Configuring the Emulator Pod
Configuring the Emulator Pod
In order to configure the emulator pod, you must first start the configuration
interface and access the "Emulator Pod Settings" configuration section (refer to the
previous "Using the Configuration Interface" section).
This section shows you how to:
•
•
To set the reset values of the SSP and PC
1 Enter an even address in response to the "Reset value for Supervisor Stack
Pointer?" question.
2 Enter an even address in response to the "Reset value of the Program Counter?"
question.
When using a foreground monitor, the supervisor stack pointer must be set to an
address in emulation or target system RAM in order for the emulator to transition
into the run state, to step, or to perform other functions after emulation reset.
The "Reset value ... ?" configuration questions set the initial SSP and PC values
after emulation reset. Upon the transition from emulation reset into the emulation
monitor, the supervisor stack pointer register and the program counter are set to the
values specified, which must be 32-bit hexadecimal even addresses.
If a run from reset command is given, this configuration item has no affect and the
initial supervisor stack pointer and program counter will be retrieved from reset
vector in the vector table.
When using the background monitor, the initial values set in response to the "Reset
value ... ?" configuration questions are also used to set up the SSP and PC after
emulation reset; however, this is not necessary for proper emulator operation. If a
target system reset occurs while running in the background monitor, the supervisor
stack pointer and program counter are unaffected.
