MAX11068 Evaluation System
When the SETLASTADDRESS command sequence is
complete, the software updates the grids on the Device_
Addresses_ (0x01) tab and the Thresholds,_ Voltage_
Measurement,_AIN/DIAG/FMEA,_Alert/Status,_Enables,_
Configuration, and Broadcast/Version/Freq tabs.
The Device_ Addresses_ (0x01) tab is initialized after
pressing the Set_Last_Address button. The grid contains
the addresses of all the detected devices. Selecting a
cell that contains a device address updates the Active_
Device drop-down list. For a two-device ladder with a
start address of 0x01, the grid would be displayed as
shown in Figure 1.
Note: A device’s address is contained in the lower byte
of its ADDRESS register (bit[5:1]), specified LSB first. A
device address of 0x01 (A[4:0]) would be stored in the
Table_6._ADDRESS_Register

device’s ADDRESS register as 0xA0 (A[0:4]). This rela-
tionship is displayed in the Active_ Device drop-down
list.
The Thresholds,_ Voltage_ Measurement,_ AIN/DIAG/
FMEA,_ Alert/Status,_ Enables,_ Configuration, and
Broadcast/Version/Freq tabs all include grids that dis-
play the contents of the selected device registers. These
tabs are all updated to contain n number of rows, where
n equals the total number of detected devices.
For a two-device ladder with a start address of 0x01,
the grids on each tab are configured with two rows, as
shown in Figure 2. The number of columns in each grid is
set by the number of registers associated with that grid.
In addition, each row has an associated device number
button that, when pressed, sets that device as the active
device, updating the Active_Device drop-down list.
