5.4 Low Level Page
The
Low Level Page
allows for direct access to the device registers. Different groups of registers can easily be
jumped to by selecting a group from the
Block Select
menu.
Figure 5-10. Low Level Page
Selecting a register will allow the user to read and write data to the register. This can be done by entering
hexadecimal register data into the
Data
input box. Register data can also be changed by selecting different
configurations under
Register Data
. After changing register data, it is important to write the data back to the
register. This needs to be done prior to selecting another register, otherwise the change will not be persistent.
For alterations to the channel registers, it is possible to broadcast a change to all channels by first making
changes to the register data and then using the Broadcast button. This will write the register data to the
corresponding register of each channel.
5.5 EEPROM Page
The
EEPROM Page
allows for generation and modification of an EEPROM hex file. This file can be loaded onto
an EEPROM device and used with the DS560MB410 while the redriver is in Controller mode.
