Automation Command

 

 

 

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sets the mode of communication you want to use with the

 

 

simulated serial port.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

∙

pipe

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tells the simulator to use a named-pipe as the method of

 

 

 

transport for serial data to/from the simulated machine.

 

 

 

The

pipe

name

will

be

of

the

form

 

 

 

"\\.\pipe\SimNow.COMn", where "n" will be 1 for serial

 

 

 

port 1 and 2 for serial port 2. The name is not user

 

 

 

configurable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

∙

COMn

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SetCommPort1 <none pipe

 

Tells the simulator to use one of the host serial ports

 

(identified by "n") as the transport for data to and from the

COMn BAUD>

 

simulated machine. "n" can be any value between 1 and

 

 

 

255, and must be an actual COM port that is present on the

 

 

 

host system. Regardless of the configuration of the

 

 

 

simulated COM port, the host COM ports baud rate is

 

 

 

configured depending on the BAUD parameter, with 8 bit

 

 

 

data, no parity, 1 stop bit. “BAUD” can be one of the

 

 

 

following values (1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14400, 38400,

 

 

 

56000, 57600 or 115200). See also Section 11.1, "Kernel

 

 

 

Debugger", on page 155.

 

 

 

 

 

 

∙

none

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tells the simulator to discard any written data, and always

 

 

 

return "receiver empty" on reads.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Use the SetMultiplier automation command to specify the baud

 

 

rate delay time used to make the serial based communication to

 

 

Microsoft‟s kernel debugger in some cases much more stable. A

SetMultiplier nMultiplier

valid nMultiplier value must be in the range of “nMultiplier>=1

 

 

and nMultiplier<=100”. For example to delay the baud rate by

 

 

1/00th of normal you would enter “SetMultiplier 1”. The default

 

 

for nMultiplier is 100.

 

 

 

 

 

GetMultiplier

Returns the current value of “nMultiplier”.

Automation Command

 

 

 

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enables or

disables

link 0,

1 or

2.

For

example

Link (012) (01)

 

„sledgeldt.link 0 1‟ enables link 0 and „sledgeldt.link 0

 

 

 

0‟ disables link0.

 

 

 

 

 

LinkStatus (012)

 

Returns the link status of link 0, 1 or 2.

 

 

LinkWidth (012) (816)

 

Sets link width to 8 or 16 bit of link 0, 1 or 2.

 

GetLinkWidth (012)

 

Returns link width in bits of link 0, 1 or 2.

 

 

GetConfig

 

Displays LDT configuration.

 

 

 

 

LogDMA (01)

 

Enables (1) or disables (0) DMA logging.

4.4.5 specifications

AMD 4.4.5 is a robust version of the AMD software ecosystem that focuses on enhanced performance, stability, and efficiency for users relying on AMD processors and graphics cards. This iteration brings various features and technologies designed to optimize gaming, professional applications, and general computing tasks.

One of the standout enhancements in AMD 4.4.5 is the integration of Smart Access Memory technology, which allows the CPU to access the full graphics memory directly. This feature enhances data flow between the CPU and GPU, leading to improved frame rates and overall performance, especially in memory-intensive games. Users can experience a marked increase in gaming performance without the need for additional hardware upgrades.

Another significant feature introduced is the updated Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition. This software update encompasses optimizations for various games, ensuring that gamers can enjoy a seamless experience with the latest titles. The Adrenalin interface also provides features such as Radeon Chill, which helps reduce power consumption during less demanding scenes, and Radeon Anti-Lag, designed to minimize input lag and enhance responsiveness in competitive gaming.

Additionally, AMD 4.4.5 brings the latest drivers that include important performance enhancements and bug fixes that allow for greater system stability. Regular updates ensure that users have the best experience with their AMD hardware, and it significantly bolsters compatibility with the latest gaming titles and software applications.

AMD's Enhanced Sync technology offers users the ability to eliminate screen tearing and stuttering while delivering smooth gameplay. It dynamically synchronizes the refresh rate of the display with the frame rates produced by the GPU, improving the visual experience significantly.

With the introduction of FidelityFX Super Resolution, AMD continues to bolster its suite of technologies that enhance graphics quality and performance. This feature allows lower-resolution images to be upscaled effectively, making it easier for users to enjoy high-end visuals without taxing their hardware excessively.

In summary, AMD 4.4.5 represents a comprehensive update for users by integrating cutting-edge technologies that cater to a wide range of applications from gaming to content creation. With enhancements across the board, AMD reaffirms its commitment to providing high-performance solutions that keep pace with the ever-evolving technology landscape.
