Hi all

We're building a product which will use two different operating modes; firstly a long capcture using channel daisy chaining (2048 samples) and secondly a segmented capture (2 separate captures of 1024 samples each). 

For the long capture, I'm looking to capture 2048 samples for 4 channels.  Therefore I configure the Write Shift Register to 0b01010101 and the Write Config Register to 0b11111111.  During capture with DWRITE=1 the Write Shift Register will update.  Am I correct that once the capture is done and DWRITE=0, I can set A3..0 to 0b1101 and simply read the value of WSROUT to tell the difference?

For the segmented capture, I'm looking to capture 1024 samples for 4 channels on a first tirgger pulse, followed by 1024 samples for 4 channels on a second pulse.  Therefore I configure the Write Shift Register to 0b11111111 and the Write Config Register to 0b01010101 and set DWRITE=0 to capture.  After the first trigger I set DWRITE=0 and need to update the Write Config Register.  Do I need to write in a whole 8 bits to the Write Config Register (i.e. 0b10101010), or can I just shift in a single new bit (value 0b0)?
