Table 6-1 Low-Level Controls
Control Description
Register map summary Displays the devices on the EVM, registers for those devices, and the states of the registers
  • Clicking on a register field allows individual bit manipulation in the register data cluster
  • The value column shows the value of the register at the time the GUI was last updated
Write register button Write to the register highlighted in the register map summary with the value in the Write Data field
Write all button Update all registers shown in the register map summary with the values shown in the Register Map summary
Read register button Read from the register highlighted in the Register Map summary and display the results in the Read Data field
Can be used to synchronize the GUI with the state of the hardware
Read-all button Read from all registers in the Register Map summary and display the current state of the hardware
Load Configuration button Load a configuration file from disk and register address/data values in the file
Save Configuration button Save a configuration file to disk that contains the current state of the configuration registers
Register Data cluster Manipulate individual accessible bits of the register highlighted in the register map summary
Individual register cluster with read or write register buttons Perform a generic read or write command to the device shown in the Block drop-down menu using the address and write data information
