Microchip Technology MPLAB REAL ICE In-Circuit Emulator Setup
2. Connect the PIC32MX Trace Interface hardware (AC244006 – sold
separately) as shown on the back of these instructions. Your PIC32MX
PIM must contain a device that supports trace in order to use trace. See
the device data sheet for details.
3. Power the target board.
Note: The emulator cannot power the target.
Software Setup
1. Launch MPLAB IDE.
2. Find currently-supported devices in the release notes:
Help>Release
Notes>MPLAB REAL ICE Emulator Release Notes.
3. Select your device:
Configure>Select Device.
4. Select the MPLAB REAL ICE in-circuit emulator as a debugger
(
Debugger>Select Tool>REAL ICE) or as a programmer
(
Programmer >Select Programmer>REAL ICE).
5. When using the emulator as a debugger, select “Debug” on the
toolbar:
Emulator Usage
1. You can enable trace through Debugger/Programmer>Settings,
Trace tab, check “Enable Trace”. However, other debug functions may
be impacted. For more information, please see the “MPLAB
®
REAL
ICE™ In-Circuit Emulator User’s Guide” (DS51616) or on-line help (from
MPLAB IDE select
Help>Topics>Debuggers>MPLAB REAL ICE).
2. To verify that the emulator is functioning properly, use the loop-back test
described on the back of these instructions.

Driver and Software Installation
CAUTION:
Do not connect the hardware before installing the software. See
instructions below.
1. Install the MPLAB® IDE v8.00 or later software application on your PC
from either the CD-ROM or Microchip web site. This and later versions
include support for PIC32MX devices on the MPLAB REAL ICE™ incircuit emulator system .
2. Insert a driver board into the emulator pod, but do not connect to a target
board. Connect the emulator pod to your PC via a USB cable. Follow the
“Found New Hardware Wizard” to install the drivers (software)
automatically. For more information, detailed driver installation
instructions are available in the MPLAB IDE installation directory in:
REAL ICE\Drivers\ddri.htm
Hardware Setup
CAUTION: If you need to change the driver board, remove power (USB
connection) from the pod first
.
1. Connect the emulator pod to your unpowered target as shown in one of
the two communication diagrams on the back of these instructions.
