This command single-steps the target program from the current PC position by executing one instruc-
tion at a time.
Format
>s [<step>]↵(direct input mode)
<step>: Number of steps to be executed; decimal (default is 1)
Condition: 0 ≤ step ≤ 65,535
Operation
If the <step> is omitted, only the program step at the address indicated by the PC is executed, other-
wise the specified number of program steps is executed from the address indicated by the PC.
>s↵... Executes one step at the current PC address.
>s 20↵... Executes 20 steps from the current PC address.
The program execution is suspended by the following cause even before the specified number of steps
is completed.
• The [Key Break] button is clicked or the [Esc] key is pressed
• The break or reset switch on the ICE is pushed
After each step is completed, the register contents in the [Register] window are updated. If the
[Register] window is closed, the register contents are displayed in the [Command] window same as
executing the rd command.
Notes

ceeded.
Error : Number of steps out of range, use 0-65535.
• If the [Data] window is opened, its display contents are updated after the execution.
• During a single-step operation, the program will not break even if the break condition set by a
command is met.

step is executed.
