Tracing the Code

Clicking on the Trace Results button will open a dialog window with a text box. The trace results of the program will only be displayed after the program entered has been assembled AND simulated properly.


Options in Tracing

  1. In order to see a trace with only the ISA registers, click on the View button on the system display and uncheck View All/ISA Registers*.
  2. Checking the Animation checkitem in the system's View menu will allow for a faster program simulation as well as trace results.
  3. Checking the View Trace by Instruction item in the system's View menu will trace the program only by instruction or cycle*.
  4. *These menu items change names according to which setting is current. The name on the item is the state that is not presently set.
  5. A new trace results window is created everytime a new program is assembled.
  6. Click the OK button in order to close the Trace Results window.
