A.3.18 Event Step Transfer Command
Format: 1110 DSSS SSSS SNNN
D Direction. Write (0) or read (1) event step.
S Step number. 0 to 255.
N Field in the event step. 0 to 7.
These commands are used to move event step information to and from the RMC. The D bit
shown in the binary expansion of the Event Step Transfer Command register indicates whether
the command will write an Event Step value (indicated by a 0) or read an Event Step value
(indicated by a 1). Therefore, commands E000 to E7FF set (write) data to the RMC, while
commands E800 to EFFF get (read) data from the RMC. The eight S bits specify the step
number, and the three N bits represent the field in the Event Step to access. Use the following
chart to select the desired field:
