Chapter 1: Connecting and Using the 68K Monitor Overview Connect Defined An application interface provides an input to and output from the 68K Monitor. This allows the 68K Monitor to ‘connect’ to any application or subsystem, and to any type of hardware (capable of stream or block transfers). As examples: • WESMAINT or the Login Process can connect the 68K Monitor to a serial port. • WESMAINT and the TELNET application can connect it to the TELNET session.
68K System Monitor User's Guide GE Energy Services Connecting to the 68K Monitor One 68K Monitor At-ATime 68K Monitor Prompts While any application running in the system can activate the 68K Monitor, only one instance of the monitor can be active at any one time. If a second application attempts to start the 68K Monitor, it will refuse the second application’s request. The prompt produced by the 68K Monitor depends on the hardware platform and the mode the device is in.
68K System Monitor User's Guide GE Energy Services Command Input and Response Input to the 68K Monitor Input to the 68K Monitor is read from the ‘connected’ application / subsystem. The input takes the form of user-entered commands. Command Line Limitations The 68K Monitor accepts a command line: • that is no longer than 80 characters, and • consists of no more than 16 separate words or symbols. − The definition of a word or string is one or more characters separated by one or more spaces.
68K System Monitor User's Guide GE Energy Services Command Input and Response, Continued Possible Responses By entering a command at the prompt and pressing ENTER, one of the following responses will happen. If you enter and a recognized command it does not require special parameters the system will execute the command. a recognized command required parameters are provided the system will execute the command.
68K System Monitor User's Guide GE Energy Services Command Input and Response, Continued Regular Keyboard Input (continued) Special Control Characters You can use these special control characters to perform advanced editing and screen navigation functions. Command Characters Description Abort CTRL-C returns the Monitor to the command line prompt and aborts most commands being processed. Note: a CTRL-C command does not work in a TELNET connection.
68K System Monitor User's Guide GE Energy Services 68K Monitor Display Output from the 68K Monitor The 68K Monitor’s output is a stream of ASCII characters written back to the ‘connected’ application / subsystem. The command executed determines the exact contents of the output. When encountering a system exception error, or a defined breakpoint, exception and breakpoint handling routines will generate additional output.

68K System Monitor User's Guide GE Energy Services SA - Serial Analyzer, Continued Buffered Data The serial analyzer does not display data immediately. It buffers the data so that the serial analyzer remains non-intrusive. The buffer is large enough (1000 bytes) that overflow is unlikely. If the buffer does overflow, however, the indication provided is: buffer overflow The monitor discards incoming data as long as the buffer is in the overflow state. It does not destroy the current buffer contents.

Protected processes must remain running at all times.
68K System Monitor User's Guide GE Energy Services SP - Suspend Process, Continued Syntax (continued) Example Type sp and press ENTER. Results: This suspends all unprotected processes. Unless it encounters an error, the system displays the prompt. If it encounters an error, it displays an error message before it returns to the prompt. Special Considerations General Full Release This function stops the execution of tasks within the remote; you must not use it when the remote is active.
68K System Monitor User's Guide GE Energy Services ST - Serial Test Platform þ Description Use this command to start one of these two serial port test procedures: • an automatic loop-back test of the defined serial port − transmits and receives a series of characters of different formats. • manually forcing the mark or space line states from the RS-232 drivers − allows you to monitor and adjust modem levels or frequencies.

CPM o D20 D20 Base o D20 ME D20 Base o D20/200 CCU Base þ D20/200 ME CCU Base þ D25 To use a test tool, the test tool application must: • be included in the software for the system, and • be created specifically to make use of this monitor function.
68K System Monitor User's Guide GE Energy Services TR - Trace Platform o Description Use this command to track the execution sequence of the processes in the system.
68K System Monitor User's Guide GE Energy Services TR - Trace, Continued Syntax (continued) Example 1 Type tr /r 20 /t0 10 208000 = 12345678 and press ENTER. Results: This will allocate a buffer for 20 samples and triggers when the long memory location becomes 12345678. It saves 10 samples before the trigger, the trigger sample and 9 samples more to fill the buffer. Example 2 Type tr /r 20 /t0 10 208000 change and press ENTER. Results: This triggers if the long memory location changes value.
