Emulator
The ME emulator is part of the SMTK and is used as the controlling entity for on-device debug-
ging. Some values can be configured in the file wtk/bin/WM_Debug_config.ini (see below note
for TC65). The emulator is running fine without changes in WM_Debug_config.ini file, because
the settings for the serial interface (COM port and baudrate) are configured during installation
of SMTK.
Note: For TC65 the file "WM_Debug_config.ini" is stored under the "Application Data" folder of
the currently logged in user. Depending on the Windows operation system it can be found
under the following directory:
Windows 2000:
e.g. "c:\Documents and Settings\<your login>\Application Data\
Siemens\SMTK\TC65_R3\WM_Debug_Config.ini"
Windows XP:
e.g. "c:\Documents and Settings\<your login>\Application Data\
Siemens\SMTK\TC65_R3\WM_Debug_Config.ini"
Windows Vista:
e.g. "c:\Users\<your login>\AppData\Roaming\
Siemens\SMTK\TC65_R3\WM_Debug_Config.ini"
In case the
Application Data
folder is not visible, it is possible to set the option to show hidden
folders (choose Explorer menu
Tool -> Folder option..
-> and select
"show hidden folder"
).
Debugging information between the Debugger (IDE) and the JVM is transferred over an IP con-
nection. In order to establish this IP connection between the PC and the module the emulator
needs a special Dial-Up-Network (DUN):
•
ISP name: "IP connection for remote debugging“
•
Modem: either "Standard 19200 bps Modem“ or "<productname> 14400 bps Modem“
or
USB modem
•
Phone number: *88#
•
Disable the
Redial if line dropped
option.
•
Enable
Connect automatically
This Dial-Up Network (DUN) connection is installed automatically together with a standard
modem or selecting USB modem during installation of SMTK. The emulator uses always the
COM port or USB modem
settings configured for this Dial-Up Network connection.
You can use any of the three serial interfaces (ASC0, ASC1, USB) to connect with module, but
you will lose the functionality which is normally present on the interface. Because of this loss
and because of its speed it is recommended that the USB interface be used.
Please keep in mind, that if you like to use a USB modem connection, you have to install and
configure that modem connection before starting SMTK installation manually and select Sie-
mens USB modem during SMTK installation. The Dial-up Network will be installed and config-
ured with USB modem during SMTK installation. There are some points to notice in case of
using the USB interface in a debugging session. If you are starting a debugging session very
quickly once again after end of a previous debugging session, the emulator is not able to select
the USB interface and is selecting a standard modem connection. Please wait some seconds
to avoid this operation system dependent problem, because the Windows operation system
