Hi CF people. I'm trying to use the datasheet for the CFA-635 with SCAB (PDF version 1.4) and I'm getting some progress. Here are some suggestions which IMHO would make the doc more user-friendly.
Stick to either decimal or hex (preferred) when listing the command codes. As an example: the docs say on success command code 19 (decimal) should report back 0x40 | 19. To interpret that in my head, it's either convert 19 to hex then bitwise or that with 0x40; or convert 0x40 to decimal and sum the two. It just means a little more complication than is necessary to work with the display.
Also, how about putting one command code per page - I can't see you printing a huge number of these and it makes things much clearer. I know it would be wasteful should anyone ever print this out, but in my copy several commands are split over two pages.
Thanks in advance,
Ian.
