7 Windows/Dialogs
7.17 MR Task Pause Window
The MR Task Pause Window realizes the task pause function of the real time OS (MR308/MR30).
The debugger for 740 doesn't support this function.
You can pause and unpause the specified task from this window.
The window can be used only when the program containing the system of the MR308/MR30 for the
task pause functions and system clock timer is downloaded.
The MR30 task pause function is supported with MR30 V.3.00 or later. Previously installed target
programs cannot be used with this window.
• The information (ID number, name, context PC value during "Pause") on all the tasks defined in
the configuration file when creating the target program is displayed in the task pause display
area. Select the target task for task pause from this display area.
• The specified program content is displayed in the task source display area. When performing
"Come-pause", specify the stop position using the cursor in this display area.
7.17.1 About Task Pause Function
The task pause function is to pause/unpause only the specific task while executing the target system.
When using the task pause function, you can specify the specific task while executing all the other
tasks and interrupts.
Also, as debugging is available, such as "Come-pause" (pause at the location you specified), effective
debugging is provided without affection to peripheral devices controlled by tasks or interrupts.
The following lists terminology definitions used in this section.
• PAUSE state
Indicates a state of the tasks that are stopped by the task pause function during execution of the
target program.
• Pause
Indicates a process to make the specific task in the PAUSE state.
• Unpause
Indicates a process to make the specific task out of the PAUSE state.
• Come-pause
Indicates a process to pause the specific task at the specified address.
