Program its address mask register to 0xffffffff (all bits set to 1) so that the address is disregarded.

Program the data value register with the particular bit pattern that has been chosen to represent a software breakpoint.

If you are programming a Thumb software breakpoint, repeat the 16-bit pattern in both halves of the data value register. For example, if the bit pattern is 0xdfff, program 0xdfffdfff. When a 16-bit instruction is fetched, EmbeddedICE-RT compares only the valid half of the data bus against the contents of the data value register. In this way, you can use a single watchpoint register to catch software breakpoints on both the upper and lower halves of the data bus.

Program the data mask register to 0x00000000.

Program the control value register with PROT[0] = 0.

Program the control mask register with PROT[0] = 0 and all other bits to 1.

If you want to make the distinction between User and non-User mode instruction fetches, program the PROT[1] bit in the control value, and control mask registers accordingly.

If required, program the DBGEXT, RANGE, and CHAIN bits in the same way.
