Precautions for using SMPC

■ Prohibition of using SH-2 direct mode

Be sure to use the peripheral library to acquire peripheral data.

● Related information
STN-6 "Regarding software libraries that must be used"

● Special notes
However, the virtual gun (STN-41) does not work unless the direct mode is used, so the above does not apply.

■ Prohibition of use of reserved bits in peripheral data format

Do not use peripheral data that is currently " extended bit " or " 1".

● Reason
Since these data including "extension bits" are reserved for new peripherals in the future, when using data containing extension bits, do not perform programming that uses the extension bits by masking.

that's all
