Select Debugger>Select Tool>MPLAB REAL ICE to choose the MPLAB REAL ICE
in-circuit emulator as the debug tool. The Debugger menu and MPLAB IDE toolbar will
change to display debug options once the tool is selected. Also, the Output window will
open and messages concerning ICE status and communications will be displayed on
the MPLAB REAL ICE tab.
Select Debugger>Settings to open the Settings dialog and set up options as needed.
Select Debugger>Breakpoints to open the Breakpoints dialog and set up multiple
breakpoints and breakpoint conditions, or right click on a line of code to set up an
individual breakpoint.
Breakpoints and triggers use the same resources. Therefore, the available number of
breakpoints is actually the available number of combined breakpoints/triggers.
See Section 5.7.1 “Breakpoints Dialog” for more information.
Select Debugger>Triggers to open the Triggers dialog to set up:
• Real-time data capture triggers. Use real-time data capture for variables in
• External triggers. Use external triggers to set up hardware triggers using the logic
Breakpoints and data capture triggers use the same resources. Therefore, the avail-
able number of breakpoints is actually the available number of combined
breakpoints/triggers.
See Section 5.7.7 “Triggers Dialog” for more information.
