Configuration of a port in 6534

Question

If i congifure a port for write,will it remove the previous pattern from the port lines?
1.) I am using for writing
in port configure, i am using
port=0,
port width=8,
line direction map = 00001111,
So it will configure lower four lines as output & upper four lines as input.
In port write vi
line mask = 00001111,
pattern = 15.
So it will write 1111 on lower four lines of port 0 right.
2.) Now in one another vi which i am runnig after the first one i am configuring port 0 as,
port=0,
port width=8,
line direction map = 00001111,
So here it will configure the upper four lines for read. But here it will also configure the lower four lines as output. So will it remove the previous written pattern from the port?

Hi Vishal,
You can test it out to make sure but reconfiguring the port will not affect the output of your signal.
