  2. In the JTAG Chain Configuration pane, click Scan Chain. The In-System Memory Content Editor sends a query to the device in the JTAG Chain Configuration pane and retrieves all instances of run-time configurable memories and constants.
    The Instance Manager pane lists all the instances of constants and memories that are runtime-modifiable. The Hex Editor pane displays the contents of each memory or constant instance. The memory contents in the Hex Editor pane appear as red question marks until you read the device.
  3. Click an instance from the Instance manager, and then click to load the contents of that instance.

The Hex Editor now displays the contents of the instance.
