7.15.2.5 Measure the Execution Time of Task
You can measure the execution time between the markers by changing the positions of start marker
and end marker in the MR Trace window.
Drag the start marker position and end marker position.
The time interval between the markers is displayed in the status bar.
Note
[Definition of time value in the MR Trace window]
The time value in the MR Trace window indicates the execution elapsed time which sets the program
execution start point to 0 in all the cases.
On the contrary, a numeric value above the grid line (scale) in the MR Trace window is a relative
value which sets the start marker to 0 (the grid interval is specified in the Value dialog), which has
nothing to do with the time value. (It is provided so that you can see the window easily.)
7.15.2.5.1. Move the Marker
Each marker can be moved by dragging. When moving the mouse on the marker, the cursor shape
changes. Then, start dragging.
The start marker moves into the window (left portion) by clicking the "Start Marker" button in the
tool bar. (Or, select Menu - [Start Marker].)
The end marker moves into the window (right portion) by clicking the "End Marker" button. (Or,
select Menu - [End Marker].)
The indicator moves into the window (center) by clicking the "Indicator" button. (Or, select Menu -
[Indicator].)
The other markers can move only to the specified positions listed below.
• Position to which the interrupt processing or task execution transits
• Position to which the task state transits
• Position where the system call issuance history is displayed
