Configuration and CONFIGx Sections
The recommended method for changing configuration settings is to select the required setting from each of the
drop-down menus for each register in the
“CONFIG1” through “CONFIG5” sections at the top right of the GUI
shown in Figure 9.1. For advanced users who are knowledgeable in ZSPM4521 bit assignments (for details, refer
to
ZSPM4521_Data_Sheet_rev_X_xy.pdf
), settings can be changed manually using the “Configuration” section at
the bottom left of the GUI.
Th
e “Configuration” section of the GUI enables changing the hexadecimal data settings in the configurable
registers of the ZSPM4521 (except STATUS, which is read-only). To change the registers, click on the
“Enable
Configuration
Registers” button as shown in Figure 9.4. To prevent further changes to the configuration registers,
click
“Disable Configuration Registers.” After enabling configuration of the registers, click on the “Read Config”
button to read the current configuration of the ZSPM4521.
Recommendation: Record the existing configuration register settings before changing any settings and writing the
new configuration to the ZSPM4521. Refer to the
“Reference” section (see section 9.3) for definitions for the
register bits and valid settings.
Option:
The “Load from File” button can be used to select a pre-defined set of values for the configuration
registers from a previously saved configuration file (see Figure 9.5).
