## New Launch Configuration Wizard

The New Launch Configuration Wizard launches when no launch configuration exists for a project. Wherever possible the New Launch Configuration wizard gathers the information from the project and asks additional questions based on the type of launch configuration chosen. For example, a launch configuration using Application TRK requires different information than one targeted for System TRK.

Launch Configuration | Wizard Pages
--- | ---
Common pages | Category Type Launch Type Build Option Selection Executable Selection New Launch Configuration
Emulation | Executable Selection Build Option Selection New Launch Configuration
Application TRK and System TRK | TRK Connection Settings TRK SIS Selection (Application TRK only)
Attach to Process | TRK Connection Settings

To access the New Launch Configurtion Wizard click the Debug icon (). If no launch configuration exists for the build target the wizard is launched. If a launch configuration already exists, then that launch configuration is launched and not the wizard.

### Category Types

Use the Category Types page to select the the launch category. The choices include Phone, Board, and possibly others. The choice made here filters the Launch Types page to only show valid launch configurations. Once a category is selected, click Next.

### Launch Types

Use the Launch Types page to select the type of launch configuration for the build target. This page does not appear when using an Emulator target. Available types are listed from the most frequently chosen (Application TRK) to the least likely type (Attach to Process). Select a type and click Next.

### Build Options Selection

Use the Build Options Selection page to define if the launch configuration uses automatic build or not. Choices include using the global automatic built setting (default), enable or disable automatic build for the launch configuration. You can also set the global option using the Configure Workspace Settings... to open the Launching preference panel.

### Executable Selection

Use the Application Selection page to choose a binary created by the project to launch and debug and verify its location. If only a single binary is available the Process to launch option is disabled.

EMULATOR ONLY Use the Location field for emulator targets to verify that the correct executable on the host is selected. This field is not used with on-device launch configurations.

Use the Specify device path of remote process to launch option to specify alternate paths for launching the executable from RAM (c:\sys\bin\), ROM (z:\sys\bin\) or memory cards (e:\sys\bin\) .

Select the Executable to launch, verify it is the correct binary, then click Next.

### TRK Connection Settings

Use the TRK Connection Settings page to specify the connection used to communicate with the target device. If the device is already connected, the drop down list will include both the COM port and the name of the device using that port. Use the On-Device Conection dialog to verify and update all Carbide software services on the device. Choose the serial port used to communicate with the target device and click Next.

### TRK SIS Selection

Use the TRK SIS Selection page to select the SIS file to install on the target device. Click the Modify SIS builder settings for build configuration link to open the SIS Builder properties pane to add, edit, or review the SIS files to build. Once the correct SIS File to Install is selected, click Next.

### New Launch Configuration

Use the New Launch Configuration page to note the name of the configuration, confirm the launch configuration settings, and then launch the debug session. If something doesn't look right, click Back to return to a page and change its setting. If all the settings are correct, click Finish to start the debug session using this launch configuration.

If you checkmark Advanced settings, the Debug dialog appears instead of launching the project. This enables you to make additional changes to the new launch configuration before starting the debug session. By design and intent, this should seldom be required for the initial launch.
