Connecting to RMHost
2.1Procedure for connecting to RMHost using AXD
This section describes the steps you must follow to connect to RMHost using AXD 1.1. If you are using another debugger, see its accompanying documentation for details on how to perform these steps using the method that is specific to your debugger.
To debug a RealMonitor-enabled image, you must connect with RMHost while your program is executing. It is therefore important that you follow the steps of this procedure in the order presented.
Caution
If you are using the Multi-ICE®sever with RMHost, you must ensure that it is not autoconfigured because this causes the target board to be reset, and disrupts any running program.
When the Multi-ICE server is not preloaded and preconfigured, you might be given the option to restart the Multi-ICE server when you attempt to connect to the Multi-ICE DLL. In this case, you must click No because this would cause an autoconfiguration. Similarly, you must not configure the Multi-ICE server using the Auto-configureoption.
To configure the Multi-ICE server for use with RMHost, you must create a configuration file that can be loaded into the Multi-ICE server, as follows:
1.Start the Multi-ICE server, and select Auto-Configurefrom the File menu. The file Autoconf.cfg is created (or updated) in the root directory of your Multi-ICE installation.
2.Make a copy of the file Autoconf.cfg, and give the copy an arbitrary name. Renaming this file ensures that it is not overwritten in a future Multi-ICE session.
After you have created and renamed your configuration file, you must load it into your Multi-ICE server using the Load Configuration... option from the File menu. You must do this every time you load the Multi-ICE server for use with RMHost.
Note
Steps 1 and 2 of the following procedure describe how to connect to RMHost if your image is not preloaded into ROM or Flash memory. If your image is preloaded, you must start at step 3.
For details on loading an image into Flash memory, see the chapter on using the ARM Flash Utility (AFU) in the ARM Firmware Suite Reference Guide.
