Simultaneous start mode OFF 40H
Simultaneous start mode ON 41H
Simultaneous start paths
selection :
EIF0g
EIF3g
- Simultaneous starts paths selection (EIF0g ~ EIF3g)
Specify the paths which need to start at the same time.
Set the corresponding bit to “1” for the paths which need to start at the same time as follows.
EIF0g : A group (path 1)
EIF1g : B group (path 2)
EIF2g : C group (path 3)
EIF3g : D group (path 4)
Any of simultaneous start blocks never starts until all of them are buffered. This mode is
effective until simultaneous start mode OFF.
- Sample setting
In case that A group and C group start at the same time,
Step 1 : Simultaneous start mode ON on C group
EC0C ~ EC6C = 01000001(41H)
EIF0C ~ EIF3C = 00000101(05H)
