Q.

What does the Status LED on the ICE-1000 and ICE-2000 indicate?

---------------------

A.

There is one LED located on the ICE-1000 and ICE-2000 products, labeled Status. It indicates the following statuses:

• § Green – the ICE is powered, configured and ready to invoke a CCES or VisualDSP++ session.
• § Magenta – the ICE is operating in JTAG mode. The LED will blink during USB activity between the host PC and the emulator.
• § Cyan – the ICE is operating in SWD mode. The LED will blink during USB activity between the host PC and the emulator.
• § Yellow – there is an issue with the EMU signal on the target board and therefore this signal will be ignored by the emulator.

If the LED is not lit, check that the driver has successfully been installed. If connection to the target is lost or terminated, the LED will return to the green setting.
