Overview of the AFE5832 EVM GUI Features
2. The
Deferred
update mode allows the user to change the values of any number of bits or fields within
the registers, but these changes will not be written to the device instantly. Unless the changes are
implemented, data cannot be read from the registers either.
When a user changes the contents of a register in
Deferred
mode, the GUI will turn the changed
register font a blue color. These
blue-font registers
indicate that a change has been made but not yet
implemented.
Within the
Deferred
update mode, there exist options in the top left-hand corner of the GUI for deciding
how the changes should be implemented (shown in
): (a)
Read Selected
data, (b)
Write
Selected
data, and (c)
Write Modified
data, or (d)
Read All
data.
1.
Read Selected
: Clicking this option in the top left-hand corner displays the value contained in the
register in the
Read Data
field in the lower right-hand corner of the GUI. In the same area of the
GUI, the
Address
field will display the address of the selected register, and the
Value
field will
display the value contained in that register as shown in
.
2.
Write Selected
: This option indicates that only the values in a
selected
register is written to the
device. In order to select a particular register to write to, click on any register under
Register Name
and then choose to write to the selected register.
3.
Write Modified
: If the user has made changes to multiple registers in the register map, this option
allows the user to write the changes within
all
modified registers to the device. Once all changes
have been written, there will no longer be any
blue-font registers
, indicating that all the changes
have been implemented.
4.
Read All
: This option reads data from all the registers in the device regardless of whether they are
selected or not.
NOTE:
If any number of registers contains modified values that are not yet written, none of the
Read
options can be used. The user is prompted to either write the modified fields to the
device or discard the changes.
