Abstract

See full text

The invention concerns a process for the monitoring of a control device by means of a processing unit, whereby the control device comprises at least one micro-controller, at least one storage unit and at least one debugging interface, such that the storage unit features address contents in addresses within its address space, and such that the debugging interface is outfitted with a trace functionality for the observation of monitoring addresses within at least one trace address area inside the address space. This aspect of the current invention is carried out for example in that a monitoring service is installed on the control device for execution by way of the micro-controller, that upon the control device is provided at least one separate trace address area within the address space with at least one address that the monitoring service receives communication of divided monitoring addresses, for example, within the address space and that the monitoring service copies the address contents of at least a portion of the monitoring addresses sequentially onto at least one address of the trace address area.
