3.1 Registers Screen
Apply power to the EVM after you have completed the EVM Connections section. Run Battery
Management Studio from the Start | Programs | Texas Instruments | Battery Management Studio menu
sequence, or the Battery Management Studio shortcut. The Registers screen (see
Figure 2 ) appears. The
Registers section contains parameters used to monitor gauging. The Bit Registers section provides a bit-
level picture of status and fault registers. A green flag indicates that the bit is 0 (low state) and a red flag
indicates that the bit is 1 (high state). Data begins to appear once the
Refresh (single-time scan) button is
selected, or it scans continuously, if the Scan button is selected.

The continuous scanning period can be set via the | Window | Preferences | SBS | Scan Interval | menu
selection.
The Battery Management Studio program provides a logging function which logs the values selected by
the
Log check boxes located beside each parameter in the Registers section. To enable this function,
select the Log button; this causes the Scan button to be selected. When logging is stopped, the Scan
button is still selected and has to be manually deselected.
