Alarm
User writes these bits to set low level “watermark”, which is the point where FIFO asserts
request for BestComm Controller data filling. Value is in bytes. For example, with Alarm = 32,
alarm condition occurs when FIFO contains 32Bytes or less. Once asserted, alarm does not
negate until high level mark is reached, as specified by FIFO control register granularity bits.

ReadPtr
Value is maintained by FIFO hardware and is NOT normally written. It can be adjusted in
special cases, but this disrupts data flow integrity. Value represents the Read address
presented to the FIFO RAM.
