3.3.5.1 Monitor Communication Status

The GUI status bar is located in the South Pane shown in Figure 4-22. The status bar allows communication status to be monitored. The communication mode health indicator at the bottom right is lit yellow when not connected, lit green when connected, or unlit when in demo mode. When first opened, the GUI automatically attempts to connect with the ULC1001-DRV2911 EVM via the USB2ANY interface. Upon successful connection, the green lit connected indicator appears as in the bottom right corner of the status bar. This connection takes approximately 25 seconds. Communication issues can include a faulty USB2ANY interface connection, an incorrect target address, or an incomplete GUI initialization. The Read/Write Status Indicator on the bottom left of the status bar cycles quickly through register names when the GUI is reading or writing registers from the ULC1001-DRV2911 EVM. Double clicking the Read/Write Status Indicator on the status bar opens a floating window which displays the entire status log, shown in Figure 4-23. Right-clicking this floating window shows the options to clear log or save the log or set the size. The status log is meant for recording Register Read/Write sequences. To create register read/write scripts, see Section 3.3.5.9.
