NAME: SET/DISPLAY BREAKPOINT BR
COMMAND SYNTAX: BR[ < address> [; < count> ] ....] < CR>
FUNCTION: The BR command enables portions of a user program to be
executed in real-time and halted if a user-specified instruction
address (breakpoint) is encountered. The breakpoint,
specified within the BR command, is placed
into a breakpoint table maintained by the Monitor
(unless the table is whenever the Monitor gives
control to the target program (ie with the GO,
GT, TR and TT commands). When a breakpoint is
encountered, the display format is displayed on
the terminal
Up to eight breakpoints may be set at any
one time.
The count, if specified, is the number of times
the address is to be encountered before the
program is halted. The default value is one (1)
(ie the program is halted as soon as the address
is encountered). The range of count is a 32 bit
integer. If no address is specified, the addresses
of all breakpoints in the table are displayed on
the terminal. The illegal instruction $4AFB
is used for the breakpoint. If Monitor control
is lost and the RESET push-button is used to
regain control, breakpoints may be left in
the user target program.
