Thanks for the feedback. The datasheet covers the 88E6390X, 88E6390,
88E6290, 88E6190X, 88E6190 so I expect those work similarly but if
only the 6352 has been tested that could explain it. It certainly
helps to know that I'm working with something that may have never
worked rather than I'm just doing something dumb.
