Data Sheet

6. Setting reference
This section lists all of the settings that the Tic supports. For each setting, this section contains several
pieces of information:
The Offset of each setting is the location where it is stored in the Tic’s EEPROM memory.
You can use this offset with the “Read setting” and “Set setting” commands.
The Type of each setting specifies how many bits the setting occupies, and says whether it is
signed or unsigned (if applicable). All the multi-byte settings use little-endian format, meaning
that the least-significant byte comes first.
The Data entry for each setting specifies how the data for that setting is encoded in the Tic’s
memory. Some of the settings lack this field because they are simply dimensionless integers,
so their encoding is straightforward.
The Default entry for each setting is the default value it has on a new Tic or a Tic that has
been reset to its defaults.
The Range entry for each setting is the allowed range of values for the setting, if applicable.
Trying to use a value outside of this range could result in unexpected behavior.
The Settings file entry for each setting is the name of the setting in a Tic settings file, if
applicable. You can save and load Tic settings files from the “File” menu of the Tic Control
Center, or by using the Tic Command-line Utility (ticcmd).
The Settings file data entry for each setting is the specification of how that setting is
encoded in a settings file. Some of the settings lack this field because the encoding is
straightforward.
The Tic Control Center entry for each setting is the location of that setting in the Tic Control
Center software, if applicable.
