REGISTER MAP TAB (22) 

Register Tree (23) 

The register tree control shows the full register map in a tree 
control. Each register is shown. Click the 

Expand

 button next to 

each register to show all the bit fields contained within that 
register (see Figure 10).  

Register (24) 

The 

Register

 control allows you to change the individual bit of 

the register selected in the register tree (labeled 23 in Figure 10). 
Click the bit in the register tree (labeled 23 in Figure 10) or 
program the register value directly into the number control on 
the right (see Figure 10). 

Bit Fields List (25) 

The 

Bitfields

 list shows all the bit fields of the register selected 

in the register tree (labeled 23 in Figure 10). Change the values 
using the drop-down menu or by directly entering a value into 
the number control on the right (see Figure 10). 

Documentation (26) 

The 

Documentation

 field contains the documentation for the 

register of bit field selected in the register tree (labeled 23 in 
Figure 10. 

Save and Load (27 and 28) 

The 

Save

 and 

Load

 buttons allow you to save the current 

register map setting to a file and load the setting from the same 
file (see Figure 10). 

EXITING THE SOFTWARE 

To exit the software, click the 

Close

 button at the top right 

corner of the
