Right-click the DSP-S2 card and select the menu option, Cache Query. Enter a File ID number (decimal or hexadecimal). After you click Query, the other fields in the dialog box become populated. In the next example dialog box, the file resides on the motherboard cache, so the CSP returns a value of 255 (decimal) or 0xff (hexadecimal). If the file resides on a DSP chip, then the dialog box will show the corresponding DSP Module Number and DSP Chip Number.
