3. Program/Load Device
Assuming the Port Setup settings are
correct, press the “Ctrl+L” shortcut or click
“Keyboard Controls”
“Load Device” from
the menu to program the device to the
current state of the newly loaded
LMK04906 file.
Once the device has been initially loaded,
CodeLoader will automatically program
changed registers so it is not necessary to re-load the device upon subsequent changes in the
device configuration. It is possible to disable this functionality by ensuring there is no
checkmark by the “Options”
“AutoReload with Changes.”
Because a default mode will be restored in the next step, this step is not really needed but is
included to emphasize the importance of pressing “Ctrl+L” to load the device at least once after
starting CodeLoader, restoring a mode, or restoring a saved setup using the File menu.
See Appendix A: CodeLoader Usage or the CodeLoader 4 instructions located at
http://www.ti.com/tool/codeloader
for more information on Port Setup. Appendix H:
Troubleshooting Information contains information on troubleshooting communications.
4. Restoring a Default Mode
Click “Mode”
“125 MHz CLKin1, 25 MHz VCXO”; then press Ctrl+L.
Figure 5: Setting the Default mode for LMK04906
For the purpose of this walkthrough, a default mode will be loaded to ensure a common starting
point. This is important because when CodeLoader is closed, it remembers the last settings
used for a particular device. Again, remember to press Ctrl+L as the first step after loading a
default mode.
