DRIVER INSTALLATION AND SETTING
4.2 Power On/ O Control
UE-1000 series include USB port power ON/OFF function and help
to maintain on eld operation.
Step 1. Every power source of USB port are independent, we could
ON/OFF directly thought SW thread. The device control Line
is SMbus that connect to all SMbus devices on the PCB.
Step 2. At rst , you need nd out your SMbus base address :
* Here you could nd the I/O Range F040-F05F,
IRQ is 0x00000005(05).
* The 0xF040 is start address(SMB_BASE) of SMbus function

Step 4. To Access SMBus register , below shows standard Read/Write
scenarios. You refer to demo code that follow SMbus protocol
to complete the process.
void smbwrite(Data_BYTE device_id, Data_BYTE reg_no,
unsigned char data)
{
Data_BYTE err_no;
WriteAByte(SMBus_Host_Status, 0xFF);
Delay_T(1);
err_no = Check_SMBus_Ready();
if (err_no != 0) return;
WriteAByte(SMBus_Trans_Addr, device_id);
WriteAByte(SMBus_Host_Command, reg_no);
WriteAByte(SMBus_Host_Data0, data);
WriteAByte(SMBus_Host_Control, 0x48);
Delay_T(200);
Check_SMBus_Ready();
}

WriteAByte(SMBus_Host_Data0, 0x00);
err_no = Check_SMBus_Ready();
if (err_no != 0) return err_no;
WriteAByte(SMBus_Trans_Addr, device_id+1);
WriteAByte(SMBus_Host_Command, reg_no);

if (err_no != 0) return err_no;
*dat = ReadAByte(SMBus_Host_Data0);
return (err_no); //Data 0
}
