Commands can be manually typed into the Command to Send control using the keyboard. Command keywords are not case sensitive and arguments should comply with the firmware format requirements.
Some commands require additional arguments, such as register writes or reads. The Command Syntax text (directly under the Command to Send field) displays the required format information for each command. The command name is followed by any required arguments and description to help ensure the argument is formatted correctly. If no argument symbols are shown, the command does not require any arguments.
The Send Command button only enables for recognized, properly formatted commands and allows them to be sent to the hardware. If the command is not properly formatted, a red circle and ‘X’ displays and the Send Command button is disabled. Moving the mouse over the Command to Send field displays text indicating the reason for the failed command.
Clicking on the black 'X' to the left of the text field clears the contents of the Command to Send field.
The small button to the right of the Command to Send field is the command help information. Clicking this button opens a browser window that displays the available commands and command details.
