Notes on Setting the [Breakpoint] Dialog Box

1. When an odd address is set, the address is rounded down to an even address.

2. A software break is accomplished by replacing instructions. Accordingly, it can be set only to

the flash memory or the RAM area. However, a software break cannot be set to the following
addresses:

An area other than flash memory or RAM

An instruction in which Break Condition is satisfied

3. During step execution, a software breakpoint is disabled.

4. A condition set at Break Condition is disabled immediately after starting execution when an

instruction at a software breakpoint is executed. A break does not occur even if a condition of
Break Condition is satisfied immediately after starting the execution.

5. When execution resumes from the breakpoint address after the program execution stops at the

software breakpoint, single-step execution is performed at the address before execution
resumes. Therefore, realtime operation cannot be performed.

6.

Settings of software breakpoint and Break Condition are invalid while the STEP OVER
function is being used.
