Hi Andrew, I will do so. Haven't done it before, so maybe it takes some time. I'm just wondering why I haven't these problems with another switching chip. Here we use the 88E6390 in multi chip addressing mode, in the other custom board we have a 88E6321 in single chip addressing mode, but there the registers would be polled too. Maybe you know a answer? Thanks again for your fast reply.
