emulator
An instrument that performs just like the microprocessor it replaces, but at
the same time, it gives you information about the operation of the processor.
An emulator gives you control over target system execution and allows you to
view or modify the contents of processor registers, target system memory,
and I/O resources.
foreground
The mode in which the emulator is executing the user program. In other
words, the mode in which the emulator operates as the target microprocessor
would.
global restart
When the same secondary branch condition is used for all terms in the
analyzer’s sequencer, and secondary branches are always back to the first
term.
prestore
The analyzer feature that allows up to two states to be stored before normally
stored states. This feature is useful when you want to find the cause of a
particular state. For example, if a variable is accessed from many different
places in the program, you can qualify the trace so that only accesses of that
variable are stored and turn on prestore to find out where accesses of that
variable originate from.
primary
sequencer
branch
Occurs when the analyzer finds the primary branch state specified at a
certain level and begins searching for the states specified at the primary
branch’s destination level.
real-time
Refers to continuous execution of the user program without interference
from the emulator. (Such interference occurs when the emulator temporarily
breaks into the monitor so that it can access register contents or target
system memory or I/O.)
secondary
sequencer
branch
Occurs when the analyzer finds the secondary branch state specified at a
certain level before it found the primary branch state and begins searching
for the states specified at the secondary branch’s destination level.
sequence terms
Individual levels of the sequencer. The HP 64705A analyzer provides 8
sequence terms.
sequencer
The part of the analyzer that allows it to search for a certain sequence of
states before triggering.
