=====TCP/IP=====

The TCP/IP communication adaptor can be used to connect with a target in case the target is present at a different location and cannot be physically connected the the PC that is running SigmaStudio+. SigmaStudio+ communicates with a server connected to the target using TCP/IP. The TCP/IP is present under the Communication Adaptors tree within the toolbox.
\\
===== Settings =====

Following options are available on the settings window, which can be launched by double clicking on the TCP/IP shape in canvas
  * IP Address - IP address on which the server connected to target is listening
  * Port - Port number on which the server connected to target is listening
  * Close Connection - Close the connection
  * Open Connection - Open Connection
  * Register ASAP Connection - Establish connection without performing the background operations
  * Max Buffer Size - Maximum data buffer size

Once the server is connected, SigmaStudio is free to send and receive data to and from the server.
\\
===== Write Data Format =====

SigmaStudio+ sends the code and parameter information to the server connected to target in the following format:

\\
^Field ^Description ^
|--------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------|
|Control| This is the control bit that is used to indicate that it is a write packet. Its value is 0x09 |
|Block / safeload write bit| This field indicates whether the write packet is a block write or a safeload write|
|Channel number| This indicates the channel number|
|Total length| This indicates the total length of the write packet. It is 4 bytes long|
|Chip address| This is the address of the chip to which the data has to be written|
|Data Length| This is the length of the data. This is 4 bytes long|
|Address| This is the address of the module whose data is being written to the DSP. This is 2 bytes long|
|Data| This is the data to be written|
\\
===== Read Request format ===== 

In order to achieve readback, SigmaStudio+ send a read request. The read request format is as shown

{{ :resources:tools-software:sigmastudio:usingsigmastudio:readresponseformat.jpg?nolink |}}
\\
^Field ^Description ^
|--------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------|
|Control| This is the control bit that is used to indicate that it is a read packet. Its value is 0x0A |
|Total length| This indicates the total length of the read packet. It is 4 bytes long|
|Chip address| This is the address of the chip for which the data has to be read from|
|Data Length| This is the length of the data to read. This is 4 bytes long|
|Address| This is the address of the module whose data is being read from the DSP. This is 2 bytes long|
|Reserved| There are two fields reserved for future use.|
\\
===== Read Response Format =====

The server connected to target must respond to the read request with a read response in the following format:

\\
^Field ^Description ^
|----------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------|
|Control| This is the control bit that is used to indicate that it is a read response packet. Its value is 0x0B |
|Total length| This indicates the total length of the read response packet. It is 4 bytes long|
|Chip address| This is the address of the chip to which the data has been read from|
|Data Length| This is the length of the data. This is 4 bytes long|
|Address| This is the address of the module whose data has been read from the DSP. This is 2 bytes long|
|Success / Failure| This byte indicates whether the read operation was a success or failure. It should be populated with a 0 for success and 1 for failure|
|Reserved| This field is reserved for future use|
|Data| This is the data read from the address|
