CCS/RM48L952: SPI no CS pin

Part Number: RM48L952
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: HALCOGEN,

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

I am currently trying to send data from the RM48 to a uSD card. I know that a CS pin connection via hardware is required when communicating with SPI. However, I only have access to SIMO, SOMI, and CLK pins. I was wondering if it is possible to use another pin (such as the ENA pin for the SPI port, or a random GPIO pin) as an acting CS pin. If so, what's the best method in doing so? I feel as though I should be able to simply send a relative HIGH or LOW signal to the uSD CS pin, I'm just not sure as I am fairly inexperienced with all of this.

Side note: I'm trying to do most of the configurations I need through HALCoGen v4.07 and I'm working in CCSv7.3.

So far, I've managed to get the FreeRTOS blinky example working and the MibSPI + DMA example working (using the internal loopback option). Any information/assistance regarding this topic would be greatly appreciated.
