Could I connect to MCU online without stopping the program?

Manuel Nieves

Hi guys,

I wonder if I could connect online with the MCU that is running in flash memory without stopping the program?

Best regards,

Manuel

Hi Manuel,

Do you mean, you want to debug the controller while in running state without halting it, right?

Nope, Manuel... that's not possible! To get into debug session, you have to stop the execution and load the program again.

If you want to monitor some parameters then you can burst the data through SCI to PC and monitor the data on terminal application.
