C5515 Hex Conversion Question

I'm trying to convert my .out file to a properly formatted boot image using hex55.exe. I desire the format to be intel hex. Eventually, I plan to use a code loading program to load an I2C EEPROM with the boot image that will allow the DSP to operate standalone.

While looking through SPRABD7A (Using the C5515 Bootloader), it gives an example in section 3.3.1.2 listing the options that needed to be passed to hex55.exe in order to create an boot image file formatted as intel hex. Included in these options is writing a 0x1 to register 0x1C8C. The comment states that this is a peripheral register.

I was curious what this register is and why this needs to be written to. SPRS645 (DSP data sheet) and SPRUFX5D (DSP System Users Guide) usually provide register info, however I can't find this register in any of the literature.

Thanks
