User Module Errata
1. CSD: If you create sensors and sliders in the CSD Wizard and assign pins, and then set
the number of sensors and sliders to 0, you may see odd overlaps in the display. If you
click OK to close the Wizard and reopen it, the view will be restored to normal.
2. CSD: The diplex table shown in the CSD User Module data sheet does not match diplex
tables created when the project is generated.
3. CSD: For a given slider resolution, the centroid is output as a value from 0 to the selected
resolution, inclusive. For example: a resolution of 128 yields an output between 0 and128, not 0 and 127.
4. CSD: There is no warning if all sensors are not assigned GPIO pins in the CSD Wizard.
5. CSD: The slider centroid could overflow when the resolution is large.
6. CSD: The group table listed in the Low Level API section only shows one byte for SliceMultiplier and indicates that the Diplex byte is not currently implemented. This isincorrect.
