Select the Enable Auto Re-Trigger right-click menu option (or corresponding button on the ILA Dashboard toolbar) on the ILA core to enable Vivado IDE to automatically re-arm the ILA core trigger after a successful trigger+upload+display operation has completed. The captured data displayed in the waveform viewer corresponding to the ILA core is overwritten upon each successful trigger event. The Auto Re-Trigger option can be used with the Run Trigger and Run Trigger Immediate operations. Click Stop Trigger to stop the trigger currently in progress.
The following table illustrates the interaction between the Vivado IDE runtime software and hardware when you invoke the Auto Re-Trigger option.
