Tracing, Enabling, and Connecting

To trace at a probe point, the probe point must have trace on and it must be enabled. To debug at a probe point, the probe point must be connected to the debug function and must be enabled.

Table 1-6 shows which combinations of tracing, enabling, and connecting result in which actions.
