Thank you Michal:
(you) Just use the appropriate 0xa00 base +
REG OFFSET from the table and you should be allright.
(Me) This is what I believe I did: 0xa00 + 0x040 = GP51/DCD_2 Function Select.

Maybe I am not setting the code in the right place or executing at the right
time?
I am still looking and testing different things to resolve this issue.
Have a good day
Jose Trujillo.
