Then the interface of Embest IDE Pro 2004 will appear as below. Project Basic Settings 1. Processor Settings Select Project Settings… The IDE will open a new dialog box. Select the “Processor” page as shown in the Figure below. Embest IDE for ARM supports ARM series microprocessor and GNU build tools. Select Project-----Settings… The IDE will open a new dialog box. Select the “Processor” page as shown in Figure. Embest IDE for ARM supports ARM series microprocessor and GNU build tools.

2. Emulator Settings Select Project-----Settings… The IDE will open a new dialog box. Select the “Remote” page shown below. If the software emulator is used, the “Simarm7” should be selected. If Power ICE is used, the “PowerIceArm7” should be selected. If a parallel port cable is used in connecting PC and ICE, “Parallel Port” should be selected. Only the emulator supported download speed is valid when you select the download speed for emulators. Power ICE for ARM supports all speeds.

3. Debugging Settings The debug related settings are shown below. There are the following three options: 1) General

● Download file: Symbol file name and its directory. Symbol file includes debug information. Normally symbol file is an elf format file or a coff format file.

● Action after connected: There are three ways for selection:

1. None -- No actions after the IDE connected to target.

2. Auto download – After the IDE is connected to the target, the file will be automatically downloaded to the board.

3. Command script -- After the IDE is connected to the target, a script file will be executed first. Notice: it is very important! The directory is C:\EmbestIDE\S3CEV40\common\ev40boot.cs

4. Download Settings Download settings page is shown in Figure below.

● Download file: Symbol file name and its directory. Symbol file includes debug information. Normally the symbol file is an elf format file or a binary file. When download as an elf file the system will automatically convert it into a binary file. ● Download verification: Automatically compare the downloaded file if it is the same as the original file. ● Download address: The downloaded file will be stored from this address.

● Execute program from:

1. Don’t care – After download the system’s PC (program counter) will not change.

2. Download address – After download the system will execute from this address.

3. Program entry point -- After download, the system will set the PC to the program entry point.

● Execute until: The last symbol the system will execute after the download.

5. Memory Maps Settings If the memory map file is used, select this item. Map file is used to control the memory read and write. But normally, in our experiment we do not use Memory Maps, so we choose “No map file”. 6. Directory Settings If users want to trace driver function library and programs in function library, select this item. Shown blow: 5. Compiler Settings The compiler settings are shown in Figure below.
