Follow the steps below to access registers in the table above using the Hard IP reconfiguration interface:

  1. Enable the Hard IP reconfiguration interface using the IP Parameter Editor.
  2. Enable CRC checking in the register AER_CAP/ADV_ERR_CAP_CTRL_OFF.
  3. Set the group number and event number.
  4. Enable the counters.
  5. Read the counter data.

Below is an example to enable the counter for the LCRC:

  1. Enable the Hard IP reconfiguration interface using the IP Parameter Editor.
  2. Enable CRC checking by performing a read-modify-write to the ECRC_CHECK_EN field within the register AER_CAP/ADV_ERR_CAP_CTRL_OFF.

    2. p0_hip_reconfig_address[31:0] = 0x0000_0119
    3. p0_hip_reconfig_writedata[7:0] = 8'h01
  3. Perform read-modify-write to address 0x0000_036F to set Group Number to 0x2.
    1. p0_hip_reconfig_write = 1’b1
    2. p0_hip_reconfig_address[31:0] = 0x0000_036F
    3. p0_hip_reconfig_writedata[7:0] = 8'h02
  4. Perform read-modify-write to address 0x0000_036E to set Event Number to 0x1.

    3. p0_hip_reconfig_writedata[7:0] = 8'h00
  6. Perform read-modify-write to address 0x0000_036C to set Enable Event Counter.
    1. p0_hip_reconfig_write = 1’b1
    2. p0_hip_reconfig_address[31:0] = 0x0000_036C
    3. p0_hip_reconfig_writedata[7:0] = 8'h1C
  7. Read the error counter data by performing a read operation from registers 0x0000_0370, 0x0000_0371, 0x0000_0372, and 0x0000_0373.
