Also, there is still another reset issued some lines further down, although in between, there is only the register-read performed, which we see right below here - I would assume this wouldn't change anything in the device to require another reset. So, in conclusion, wouldn't it be sufficient to just move the reset part from further down up here?

hi Hartmut,
 thanks for these suggestions.  I made the changes you suggested to my code,
 but it appears that I never replied or reposted.  Sorry about that.

 I'll resubmit in a moment...

Thanks,
NeilBrown
