Setting Up the Debugger Environment
11
Installing the EVM and the Debugger
Running other host applications
If you plan to use the EVM for running other host applications (for example, a
modem), you must first load a valid object file into the EVM. To do this, invoke
the debugger and load the object file:
evm5x
filename
Once you have entered the debugging environment and the object file has
been loaded, exit the debugger:
quit
At the DOS prompt, reset the EVM by entering the evmrst command:
evmrst
If you modified the I/O switch settings, you must use the debugger’s –p option
to identify the I/O space that the EVM is using. You can do this each time you
reset the EVM, or you can specify this information by using the D_OPTIONS
environment variable (the evmrst command reads your autoexec.bat or in-
itdb.bat file). You can override D_OPTIONS by entering evmrst followed by the
–x option.
Notes:
-
Never reset the ’C5x EVM with evmrst unless you have first loaded a
valid object file to the EVM.
-
If you plan to use the debugger with the EVM, you do not need to reset
the EVM with evmrst before invoking the debugger.
