Debug: How To Find Out What Is Really Connected?

The document discusses debugging tools and methods in the Test Debug Environment (TDE). TDE provides an integrated development environment for debugging programs with features like breakpoints, stepping, and instrument displays. It allows viewing variables, signals, and board states. Methods include setting breakpoints in flows, procedures, or VBA code and stepping through or running programs. Toolsets can be customized with selected displays and tools.

Test Debug Environment (TDE)


Outline

• Introduction to Test Debug Environment


• Methods to Debug using TDE
• Breakpoints and step functions using MiniFlow
• Tools available in TDE
• Instrument Displays available in TDE
• Building Toolsets using TDE
Fundamentals

• IDE (Integrated Development Environment) is


the basic model:
– Dockable tools
– Resizable windows
– User preferences (Toolsets)
• Not all tools needed all the time
– Unused tools will be minimized
• Build Toolsets for defining different setups
– Create up to 4 Toolsets for specific device applications
– Displays can be selected based on type of device or tests

Debug Methods

• Method 1: (From the Workbook)


– Start TDE
– Restore tool state
– Set breakpoints in Flow and/or Test procedure
– Set enable words and run options via MiniFlow
– Blue run button to start the test program
• Method 2: (from Flow Table)
– Put breakpoint on Flow Table
– Press Run Options button and select enables, run mode
– Press blue run button
– Maximize TDE
• Method 3: (from a Test Procedure)
– Press triple dot button on a procedure
– Put breakpoints in the test procedure in PDE
– Press blue run button
• Method 4: (from VBA)
– Set breakpoints in VBA code
– Go to Data Tool and press blue button
