13706PLAY Diagnostic Utility S1D13706

Scripting
13706PLAY can be driven by a script file. This is useful when:
• there is no display output and a current register status is required.
• various registers must be quickly changed to view results.
A script file is an ASCII text file with one 13706PLAY command per line. All scripts must
end with a “q” (quit) command.
On a PC platform, a typical script command line might be:
13706PLAY < dumpregs.scr > results
This causes the file dumpregs.scr to be interpreted as commands by 13706PLAY and the
results to be sent to the file results.
Example 1: Create a script file that reads all registers and then exits.
; This file initializes the S1D13706 and reads the registers.
; Note: after a semicolon (;), all characters on a line are ignored.
; Note: all script files must end with the “q” command.
; Initialize the S1D13706
i
; Read all registers
xa
; Exit the program
q
Comments
• All displayed numeric values are considered to be hexadecimal unless identified
otherwise. For example:
• 10 = 10h = 16 decimal.
• 10t = 10 decimal.
• 010‘b = 2 decimal.
• Redirecting commands from a script file (PC platform) allows those commands to be
executed as if entered by a user.
