132 TMCL tick timer
A 32 bit counter that gets incremented by
one every millisecond. It can also be reset
to any start value.

Returns a random number. The seed value
can be set by writing to this parameter.

255 Suppress reply
The reply in direct mode will be suppressed
when this parameter is set to 1. This pa-
rameter cannot be stored to EEPROM and
will be reset to 0 on startup. The reply will
not be suppressed for GAP, GGP and GIO
commands.

Table 17: All Global Parameters of the PD-1160 Module in Bank 0
5.2 Bank 1
The global parameter bank 1 is normally not available. It may be used for customer specific extensions
of the firmware. Together with user definable commands these variables form the interface between
extensions of the firmware (written by Trinamic in C) and TMCL applications.
5.3 Bank 2
Bank 2 contains general purpose 32 bit variables for use in TMCL applications. They are located in RAM
and the first 56 variables can also be stored permanently in the EEPROM. After booting, their values are
automatically restored to the RAM. Up to 256 user variables are available. Please see table 16 for an
explanation of the different parameter access types.
