Command Read/Write

To read/write to RAM, need to send a command to the device.

The command format is as below.

DataByte(SET_REPORT)

Byte1

Command Byte

Byte2

Address - Byte 0 (LSB)

Byte3

Address - Byte 1

Byte4

Address - Byte 2

Byte5

Address - Byte 3 (MSB)

Byte6

Value Byte

Byte7

Checksum

Command Byte is read=0xD1/write=0xD2.

Address is read/write RAM address.

Value Byte is writing data when you send the write commands.

When you read RAM, there is no meaning.

DataByte(GET_REPORT)

Byte1

Response Byte

Byte2

Address - Byte 0 (LSB)

Byte3

Address - Byte 1

Byte4

Address - Byte 2

Byte5

Address - Byte 3 (MSB)

Byte6

Value Byte

Byte7

Checksum

Read value is stored in Value Byte.
