Intel® System Debugger User Guide
Physical Target
Check Supported Platforms and Probes to see what probe types are supported for your target.
Plug the debug probe into the target platform.
Refer to the detailed instructions on connecting primary probe types below.
For troubleshooting, use the System Configuration Checker to diagnose your target configuration.
Probe Setup
To use the Intel® System Debugger on a hardware board the host and target hardware must first be connected. The probe drivers are automatically installed by the installer.
- Intel® In-Target Probe - Extended Debug Port (Intel® ITP-XDP)
Plug in the probe power supply. The probe fan must start spinning. Failing to connect the power supply when the probe is in use will damage the probe.
Plug the USB cable into the probe and into an USB2.0 (or greater) port of your host computer.
Identify the XDP port on your target board, usually named “CPU XDP”, and plug the small PCB with connector at the end of the ribbon cable to it.
Power on the target board.
- Intel® Silicon View Technology (Intel® SVT) Closed Chassis Adapter
Enable Intel® Direct Connect Interface (Intel® DCI) debug from target board BIOS.
Identify the USB debug port on your target board.
Plug the USB cable to the probe and into an USB port of your host computer.
Plug the debug cable to the probe and to the USB debug port on the target board.
Power on the target board.
- USB Native Debug Class (DbC) Cable
Enable Intel® Direct Connect Interface (Intel® DCI) debug from target board BIOS.
Identify the USB debug port on your target board.
Plug the debug cable to the host USB port and to the USB debug port on the target board.
Power on the target board.
- Lauterbach* Probes
If you need to use Lauterbach* probes, refer to additional connection instructions.
To identify the status of the connection, use the Target Indicator.
