6.18 Trace Functions

The emulator has a branch-instruction trace function.

The branch source addresses, mnemonics, operands, source lines, and labels are displayed for four
branches.

Note: The trace function uses the trace buffer housed in the device.

Devices which have no trace function cannot use this function.

6.18.1 Displaying the Trace Window

Select [Trace] from the [Code] submenu of the [View] menu.

Run the program as shown in the example of section 6.16.1, PC Break Function. The trace results
are displayed in the [Trace] window after the program execution is completed.

Figure 6.38 [Trace] Window

If necessary, adjust the column widths by dragging borders in the header bar (immediately below
the title bar).

Note: The number of branch instructions that can be acquired by a trace and the trace display

differ depending on the product. For the specification of each product, refer to the online
help.
