The faults shown on the left side of the block representation are generally associated with the input. These
include input under-voltage (UV), input over-voltage (OV), FET Fail (FF), and input over-power (OP). The
SMBus alert status, SMBA, is also shown on the left side and will turn red during any warning or fault
event. To facilitate the evaluation of the device, SMBus alerts are automatically cleared by the GUI.
The faults shown on the right side of the block representation are associated with the output. These
include output over-voltage (OV), power good status (PGD), output over-current (OC), and over-
temperature (OT). There is also an indicator if the output is in the latched off state (LO). The device will
latch the output off after the number of user programmable retries is exceeded. To clear the latched off
condition, the output can be toggled off and on by the red power button icon located in the top right of the
LM5064 block representation.
To show a repetitive update of the device telemetry and status click on the play icon at the top of the
screen. The play button starts an active telemetry log of the gathered data. Clicking the stop icon stops
the telemetry collection and allows for the log file to be viewed and saved. The pause button pauses both
the displaying and logging of telemetry information.
To disable displaying undesired telemetry click the display icon on the block representation. This will open
the window shown in
that will allow the user to disable the undesired telemetry, fault, and warning
information from appearing on the block level device representation.
