Trigger Mode

Select one of the following options to specify whether trace data is collected before, around or after the trigger:

Collect Trace Before Trigger

Default. Capture all data prior to the trigger position. For example, if your buffer size is set to 50, the 50 rows of trace information directly preceding the trigger point are returned.

The data captured might not be precisely on the trigger point, it might be a few cycles out.

Collect Trace Around Trigger

Capture all data around the trigger position. In this case, half of the data prior to reaching the trigger, and half of the data after reaching the trigger, is captured.

Collect Trace After Trigger

Capture all data after the trigger position. For example, if your buffer size is set to 50, the 50 rows of trace information directly following the trigger point are returned.

Stop Processor on Trigger

Stop the target processor when the trigger is hit.
