Connecting to target hardware

To connect to target hardware, you must use a suitable JTAG interface unit such as RealView ICE or Multi-ICE.

RealView ICE

To use RealView ICE, use the ARM-ARM-NW connection in the Connection Control window. You must configure RealView ICE, and define the JTAG configuration file, before you can connect.

Multi-ICE

You cannot use the normal ARM Multi-ICE configuration to connect to DSP processors, because the Multi-ICE software does not support non-ARM architecture processors. Instead, you can use Multi-ICE direct connect, which uses the Multi-ICE hardware and software within RealView Debugger. In this configuration, you require the Multi-ICE parallel port driver and the Multi-ICE interface hardware, but the Multi-ICE Server must not be running.

To use Multi-ICE direct connect, use the ARM-ARM-PP connection. You must configure the configuration file using the JTAG configuration editor before you connect.
