Using the Micrium µC/Probe
The Micrium µC/Probe is a software dev
elopment tool that incorporates Micrium’s proprietary Graphical Live Watch to
graphically visualize the internals of any embedded system. With µC/Probe, you can debug your embedded design
effortlessly, with just a few mouse clicks. You can download the
µC/Probe
Users’ Guide
and
µC/Probe Target Manual
from
the following web page:
μC/Probe User Guide and μC/Probe Target Manual
. To learn more about the µC/Probe,
visit:
micrium.com/tools/ucprobe/overview/
.
Micrium µC/Probe allows you to monitor the values of all the global variables in your project while the project is running on
the PSoC 4200M. These values can be mapped on to multiple graphical interface elements provided by the µC/Probe
software, such as angular gauges or numeric indicators. This allows you to use the µC/Probe as an effective debug tool
because it does not halt the CPU.
