Xtreme run modes?

In Xtreme, what are the differences between the run, tbrun and autorun modes?

Thanks for the help!

    The run command ($rcc(run);) is used for acceleartion. It allows the DUT to execute in RCC engine, and the remaining parts of the design and testbench run in XSIM software simulator. In run mode, user can have delay control from the CLI.

    The autorun command ($rcc(autorun);) allows the DUT to execute in In-Circuit Emulation (ICE)
    mode. It enables internal clock generation. This gives you the highest performance possible in
    Xtreme. We have two kinds of ICE, one is targetless emulation and the other one is target emulation.
    In autorun, user can not have delay control from the CLI. The only way to stop $rcc(autorun); from the Command Line Interface (CLI) is to press the Ctrl-C key and swap back to simulation mode.

    The $rcc(tbrun); command enables delay control in targetless emulation. $rcc(tbrun);
    mode has both the performance of $rcc(autorun); mode and the flexible delay control of $rcc(run);
    mode.
