Debug Modes - Silicon Laboratories SLWSTK6104A User Manual

8.2 Debug Modes

To program external devices, use the debug connector to connect to a target board and set the debug mode to [Out]. The same con-
nector can also be used to connect an external debugger to the MGM220P Module on the kit by setting debug mode to [In].
Selecting the active debug mode is done in Simplicity Studio.
Debug MCU: In this mode, the on-board debugger is connected to the MGM220P on the kit.
Debug OUT: In this mode, the on-board debugger can be used to debug a supported Silicon Labs device mounted on a custom board.
Debug IN: In this mode, the on-board debugger is disconnected, and an external debugger can be connected to debug the MGM220P
on the kit.
Note: For "Debug IN" to work, the kit board controller must be powered through the Debug USB connector.
