General registers

Registers are the register contents of the central processing unit (CPU) of the host computer or the targeted device. When debugging projects using the emulator, only the host computer x86 registers are visible in the Registers view. When debugging projects on a device, only the target device registers are visible.

In most cases, the contents of all the registers can be modified. However, when debugging applications on a target device with Application CODA, you cannot change the LR and SP registers.
