Setting Up the Stopwatch Timer Within the Debugger

9

Figure 4.   Finding the Starting Address in the Debugger

After finding the starting address, the event detector can be setup. The procedures are outlined in these 
steps:

1. Choose EOnCE > EOnCE Configurator > EDCA1.

2. Click PC in the “Bus Selection” box.

3. Enter the address of the first instruction in the measured code into the “Comparator A Hex 

32-bits” box.

4. Click Enable in the “Enabled after Event On” box.

Figure 5 on page -10 shows the event detection settings after performing these steps. For more detailed 
information in Enhanced OnCE configuration in Code Warrior tools, refer to [3].
