6.5.2 Customizing the Trace Memory Window
The column widths can be adjusted manually by dragging the right column
header border with the mouse. Select Options>Configure to further customize
the trace display.
Figure 6.19: Configure Trace Dialog
Configurable items include:
• Each column can be disabled through a checkbox.
• Disassembled Instructions can be displayed in either hex (raw) or
symbolic format.
• Data addresses can be displayed in either hex (raw) or symbolic format.
• External inputs can be displayed in either hexadecimal or binary format.
• The time stamp can be displayed in either number of cycles or in
seconds.
• The number of trace cycles to download and display can be selected.
The benefits of configuring the trace display are:
• Disabling a column will prevent the information from being uploaded
from the emulator, resulting in faster display time.
• Keeping the number of Uploaded Trace Lines to a minimum will also
result in a faster display time.
To display more of the information currently in the emulator’s trace memory,
increase the number of Uploaded Trace Lines, click OK, then select Data/
Reload.
