HI Glenn:

Thanks for your great help. By the way, what's the offset when I read from 
snap_bram? 1 or 4?

Thanks

Wan

Wan,
The simplest operation of the snap block is as follows:
Write 0 to the snap_ctrl file/register
Write 7 to the snap_ctrl file/register to force enable, trigger, and write 
enable to be true (look under the snap mask to see how it works)
Read snap_addr and wait for it to be snaplength - 1 (2047 by default). Usually 
this is essentially instantaneous, so no need to actually check unless you want 
to be sure the snap captured something.
Read the snap_bram file, which should be snaplength 4-byte words (2048x4 bytes).

Any idea? How can I access the whole block ram of snap from the CPU?

Thanks

Wan

Hi:

I find the snap_addr of snap block is output only. Is there anyway, I can read 
out all the data from the snap block memory. Is there anyway I can specify the 
read address?

Thanks

Wan
