CHAPTER 10

SEGGER SystemView

10.2    SEGGER SystemView

SEGGER SystemView is a real-time recording and visualization tool to gain a deep under-

standing of the runtime behavior of an application, going far beyond what debuggers are

offering. The SystemView module collects and formats the monitor data and passes it to

RTT.
SystemView is included with many embOS start projects. These projects are by default

configured to use SystemView in debug builds. The associated PC visualization application,

SystemViewer, is not shipped with embOS. Instead, the most recent version of that appli-

cation is available for download from our website.
For more information on SEGGER SystemView, including the SystemViewer download, refer

to
