Quickstart

Getting Started

For starting TRACE32 follow these steps:

1. Set defaults members depending to your environment

   • Most default settings should be appropriate

2. Create a PowerView object

   • Define a Connection

   • Specify your target

3. Configure your PowerView instance as needed (e.g. add a Interface)

4. start() your created PowerView instance

5. Do your work.

6. Either wait() for termination or stop() the PowerView instance manually.

Minimal USB debugger example

import lauterbach.trace32.pystart as pystart

# If installation is not located at "C:\T32" and environment variable "T32SYS" is not
# pointing to the installation directory of TRACE32 add following line:
# pystart.defaults.system_path = "</path/to/TRACE32/installation>"

pv = pystart.PowerView(pystart.USBConnection(), "t32marm")
pv.start()
pv.wait()

Minimal ethernet debugger example

import lauterbach.trace32.pystart as pystart

# If installation is not located at "C:\T32" and environment variable "T32SYS" is not
# pointing to the installation directory of TRACE32 add following line:
# pystart.defaults.system_path = "</path/to/TRACE32/installation>"

connection = pystart.UDPConnection("<IP address or DNS name of the debugger>")
pv = pystart.PowerView(connection, "t32marm")
pv.start()
pv.wait()
