Button Descriptions
Read:
Clicking on this button reads the ACT2861 registers and displays them in the GUI. Note that this reads
all registers. Active-Semi recommends reading registers each time the ACT2861 powers-up to acquire the initial
register settings. Active-semi also recommends reading registers after making changes to them. Immediately
reading the registers after a write confirms the changes were properly stored.

Write:
Clicking on this button writes the GUI settings to the ACT2861’s registers. All registers are written,
regardless of whether or not they were changed.

Dongle Connection Status:
