4.3 Console

To show or hide the console, toggle the option in the View pulldown menu (see Figure 4-7). The console can be used to access the LP875761-Q1 registers. Registers can be read or written simply by referring to the logical registers by their name. See an example Figure 4-8. The console has a number of integrated macros that are listed in Table 4-3.
