After the program is uploaded, a checksum is calculated and you have the opportunity to
enter a description of the program. The program description is an ASCII string that you can
use to identify your program. It does not impact the function of the DSP module in any
way, but can be a helpful way to track program revisions. A typical program description
might be "Filter version 1.00.” The size of the program is also calculated.

Type
Q
to quit Command Mode and
the application program will boot.
There are a number of additional commands that are available in Command Mode. For example,
you can read, write and erase EE memory form the DSP> prompt. This memory is also available to
the DSP via the Peripheral Microcontroller API.
There is no option to read back the application program via the Command Mode. This is to help
you keep your code a little more proprietary. We suggest that you use the checksum information as
a check during production programming to insure that your program was loaded correctly.
