5.3. Reviewing what we have created

  1. Save and close the Connection Properties window to exit.

  2. Connect to the Localhost new_arm target and check the RVD register window. A new tab should be visible as shown.

Modifications to this number should be reflected at the corresponding address in an RVD memory window.

This approach is all right, but we are only interested in viewing the last byte of this register.

Displaying the whole register also makes it possible for a user to inadvertently modify the reserved upper 3 bytes.

We can remove these problems by using a BCD feature called bit fields.
