6.5.4.2 Vector Catch

The vector catch feature allows the CPU to halt after a Reset or other exceptions. Note that, since the PIC32CM PL10 family has a Boot ROM, the Reset vector catch cannot be used to prevent the CPU from executing the first instruction in the First Mutable Executable (FME), as the vector catch would halt the CPU on the first instruction in the Boot ROM while the device is locked (DAL = 0). Instead, Park mode is used to halt the CPU and prevent it from executing the FME.
