Discussion

The devicescan function directs the emulator to perform device discovery on the target. While the implementation varies on different target types, the results of this operation are used to populate the SourcePoint Device configuration table, which is the source for the deviceconfigure function.

This command is acceptable only when the emulatorstate control variable is set to 1, following a successful jtagconfigure or uncoreconfigure operation.

The devicelist command can be used to display a list of discovered devices.

Example

Command Input:

devicescan()
