LDC1101EVM: How to directly communicate with LDC1101EVM using Python?

Part Number: LDC1101EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LDC1614,

Hello, 

I'm reading Q3 and Q4 of the inductive sensing FAQ, and I'm not sure where in the LDC1614 documentation it discusses CRC-8 or how to format the "Write register command header" as "4C 15 01 00 04 2A XX YY YY ZZ." Because I'm trying to apply a similar technique to gather data from my LDC1101EVM, I'm stuck at several points:

- Do I need to consider CRC-8 when working with the LDC1101EVM?

- Do I need to have a "write register command header", and if so, what do I write? The user guide provides a "streaming data structure" table, but I don't quite see how to use that to create a hex message like the one above. 

- Is there anything I should be aware of when trying to directly communicate with my device using Python?

Best regards,

Bill
