Configure screen

You can press on the configuration item and use the pop-up keypad to alter it. The SPLat MMi202 Master pulls the floating point, 16-bit and 8-bit configuration values from the Kaspro, increments them by one then sends them back to the Kaspro to be displayed as the returned and manipulated value. The incrementing is done to demonstrate that the data has gone a “round trip”.

The SPLat also stores the modified values in permanent memory.

On entering the Configuration screen the Kaspro sets bit-1 in ‘bPermstoreFlag_LSB’ and on exiting the configuration screen the Kaspro clears bit-1 in ‘bPermstoreFlag_LSB’. This bit is pulled from the Kaspro by the MMi202. A transition from a TRUE state to a FALSE state indicates that the user has exited the configuration screen. The MMi202 then pulls the configuration values from the Kaspro and compares them against the currently stored values in SPLat permanent memory. If any value has changed it stores the new values pulled from the Kaspro into SPLat permanent memory so they can be correctly restored at power-up.

Pressing the ‘Flash Error LED?’ button on the Kaspro will toggle a status bit inside the Kaspro unit for use with the Status LED on the Operation screen described later.
