Browser update time
This text box specifies how often browser windows are updated if spy mode is
not on, but periodic updates are running.
6.5 Data Panels
The main browser window includes several information panels (labeled along the
left of Figure 6-1) to provide an overview of the state of the target system.
System Task List
Summary information on all operating-system tasks currently running on the
target. To hide this task list (leaving more space for the application-task
summary), click on the folder labeled WRS Tasks. To bring up the list again,
click again on the same folder.
Application Task List
Summary information on all application tasks currently running on the target.
To hide this task list, click on the folder labeled User Tasks. To bring up the list
again, click again on the same folder.
The task-summary display (for either system or application tasks) includes the
task ID, the task name (if known), and the task state.
You can display detailed information on any of these tasks by clicking on the
summary line for that task; see 6.6.1 The Task Browser, p.214.
Memory-Consumption Graphs
The two bar graphs in this panel show what proportions of target memory are
currently in use.
The upper bar shows the state of the memory pool managed by the target
agent. 1 This represents target memory consumed by Tornado tools, for
example with dynamically-linked modules or for variables defined from the
shell.
The lower bar shows the memory consumed by all tasks in the target system,
including both application (user) tasks and system tasks.
1. To set the size of this memory pool, see Scaling the Target Agent, p.141.
