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 isn‟t really needed but 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”
“LMK04906B, 122.88 MHz VCXO, 122.88 MHz CLKin1”; 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.
