4.10Registers Screen

4.10.1Setting Registers

The Registers screen (see in Figure 8) allows direct control of all the LXT386 registers. Each register is labeled by its functional name and hex address. Right click on a register name for on-line help.

4.10.2Status Indicators

Display boxes within the Registers screen show the state settings for individual bit positions of each register. Each of the 4 least significant bits of these registers control the corresponding transceiver channel, except where otherwise noted in the LXT386 specifications. The check boxes beside the “Mode” column denote enabling of read/write step modes.

4.10.3Control Buttons

Clicking on the “Read All” button will initiate a global read of all LXT386 registers. Clicking on the “Read Step” and “Write Step” buttons performs the indicated action only on registers that have the enable box checked. The “Back” button is used to return to the configuration screen, and the “Exit” control button can be used at any time to close the software.

4.10.4Interrupts

The Interrupt indicator is located in the lower right corner. This indicator will turn red whenever there are pending interrupts in the LXT386. Interrupts are cleared by reading the corresponding Status Monitor register. When all interrupts are cleared, the Interrupt indicator will turn Green. See Figure 8.

4.10.5Reset

While operating the evaluation board in Software mode, reset is accomplished by using the write step function to write to the software reset register address 0Ah.
