-Programmi silumiseks (inglise keeles //debugging//) nimetatakse vigade otsimist programmist. Selleks on loodud eraldi vahendid - silurid (inglise keeles //debugger//), mis võimaldavad programmi täita samm-sammult, peatades seda soovitud kohtades. Selline programmi täitmine võimaldab igas programmi faasis kontrollida muutujate väärtusi, registrite sisusid ja programmi täitmise järjekorda. Eriti oluline on silumise võimaluse kasutamine keerukamate programmide juures, kus vea põhjust on tihti keeruline otsida. Mikrokontrollerite puhul on veel oluline, et tarkvara samm-sammult täitmine toimub reaalselt kontrolleris ja võimaldab nii lisaks registrite väärtuste vaatamisele näha ka reaalsete väljundite muutumist. Siluri kasutamiseks on eelkõige vaja kahte tingimust: kasutatav mikrokontroller peab silumist toetama ja olemas peab olema ka vajalik riistvara - silumist toetav JTAG programmaator. Odavamad programmaatorid, mis kasutavad ISP programmeerimise liidest, võimaldavad laadida kontrollerisse küll kompileeritud programmi, kuid ei võimalda silumist.
+Debugging a program means searching errors from the program. For that programs called debuggers are created, they allow to execute the program step by step and stopping it where it is needed.  Such implementation of the program allows checking the values of the variables at any phase of the program, contents of the registers and the sequence of executing the program. Debugging is especially important while dealing with more complex programs where it is often difficult to find errors. With microcontrollers, it is important that step-by-step implementation of program is done in the controller, which allows seeing change of real outputs in addition to the values of the registers. Two conditions must be met for using a debugger: microcontroller must support debugging and you must have necessary hardware – JTAG programmer which allows debugging. Cheaper programmers using ISP programming interface may upload compiled program into the controller but not necessarily allow debugging.
+To start the program in debugging mode with the AVR Studio, firstly it should be compiled by pressing button //build// (F7) and the compiled program started with the command //Run// (F5). Before that //break points// (F9) can be added to selected palces in  the source code. When implementation of the program reaches the break point, the program is stopped for determining the state of the microcontroller in that point. Implementation of the program may be continued with command //Run// again or use //Step Into// (F11) for implementing the program one command at the time.
-Programmi käivitamiseks siluri režiimis AVR Studio-ga tuleks see esmalt kompileerida nupuga //Build// (kiirklahv F7) ja käivitada kompileeritud programm käsuga //Run// (kiirklahv F5). Programmi lähtekoodi võib enne seda soovitud kohtadele lisada katkestuspunkte (inglise keeles //break point//) (kiirklahv F9). Kui programmi täitmine jõuab katkestuspunktini, peatatakse programmi töö, võimaldades nii uurida mikrokontrolleri olekut sellesse punkti jõudmisel. Programmi täitmist võib jätkata jällegi käsuga //Run// või siis kasutada käskhaaval täitmist käsuga //Step Into// (kiirklahv F11).

+Some times in AVR program it is necessary to use floating-point variables. For calculating with them and presenting with //printf//-type functions, the following set-up changes must be done to the configuration of the project:
-**1.** Avada projekti seaded menüüst //Project -> Configuration Options//. Seadete kaardil //Libraries// tuleb sinna, kuhu on lisatud kodulabori teegi objekt //libhomelab.a//, järgi lisada ka //libprintf_flt.a// ja //libm.a//.
+**1.** Open the set-up of the project from the menu //Project -> Configuration Options//. Add //libprintf_flt.a// and //libm.a// after //libhomelab.a// of the library of HomeLab in the configuration tab //Libraries//.
-**2.** Seejärel tuleb avada //Custom Options// kaart ja valida //[All files]// sektsioon. Parempoolsesse kasti lisada read "-lprintf_flt" ja "-lm". //[Linker Options]// sektsiooni lisada rida "-uvfprintf".
+**2.** Next, open tab //Custom Options// and chose //[All files]//. Next add lines with "-lprintf_flt" ja "-lm" to the box on the right and line with "-uvfprintf" to the //[Linker Options]// section.
