Register settings." > I cannot parse it. Threre 3 methods mentioned in chapter 19.3 of RZ/G2L HW manual for Output-Disable Control Operation. "Register settings" referred to the 3rd method as mentioned below. 19.3 Output-Disable Control Operation The output of the GTIOCxA and GTIOCxB pins can be disabled when any of the following conditions are satisfied. 1) Input level or edge detection of the GTETRGn pins When POEGGn.PIDE is 1, the POEGGn.PIDF flag is set to 1. 2) Output-disable request from the GPT When POEGGn.IOCE is 1, the POEGGn.IOCF flag is set to 1. The output-disable requests enabled by GRPDTE, GRPABH, and GRPABL bits of the GTINTAD register in the GPT are applied to the group selected by GRP[1:0] bits of the GTINTAD register. 3) SSF bit setting When POEGGn.SSF is set to 1. The state of the GTIOCxA and the GTIOCxB pins when the output is disabled is controlled by the GPT module. Please let me know if you need any info. Cheers, Biju
