System Viewer

System Viewer windows display information about peripheral registers. Use the System Viewer to:

  • View peripheral register property values.
  • View additional information about a property (red circle).
  • Change property values at runtime. Click into the value-field and enter a new value.
  • Search for specific properties using the search field. Enter TR1 Regular Expressions to narrow the selection and press ENTER. For example:

    Regular ExpressionOutput
    .*[0-2]Returns properties that end with a number between zero and two.
    .*CCR*Returns properties that contain the string "CCR".
