REJ10J0482-0300 Rev.3.00 February 16, 2006

Terminology

Some specific words used in this user's manual are defined as follows:

Emulator system

This means an emulator system built around the PC7501 emulator. The PC7501 emulator system is configured with an

emulator main unit, emulation probe, host machine and emulator debugger.

Emulator main unit (Hereafter PC7501)

This means an emulator main unit for M16C Family MCUs.

Emulation probe

This means the emulation probe (this product) for the M32C/87 Group MCUs.

Emulator debugger (M32C PC7501 Emulator Debugger or M3T-PD308F)

This means a software tool to control the PC7501 emulator and this product and enable debugging.

Firmware

Program that analyzes contents of communication with the emulator debugger and controls the emulator hardware. This

program is installed in the flash memory in the emulator main unit. This program is downloadable from the emulator debugger

to upgrade the firmware or to support other MCUs.

Host machine

This means a personal computer used to control the emulator main unit and emulation probe.

Software break

A software break is a function to break the program before the system executes an instruction at the specified address. The

instruction at the preset address will not be executed.

Hardware break

A hardware break is a function to break the program when the system detects a write/read of data to/from memory or a

leading/trailing edge of the signal entered from the external trace cable. The former break function is called address break; and

the latter break function is called trigger break. While the instruction at the address where the software break is set is not

executed, a hardware break is performed after the specified instruction is executed.

Target MCU

This means the MCU you are going to debug.

User system

This means a user's application system using the microcomputer to be debugged.

User program

This means the program you are going to debug.

Evaluation MCU

This means the MCU mounted on the emulation probe which is operated in the specific mode for tools.
