The enables should be used as a control to enable a regulator that provides the necessary current to the LEDs. The PWM outputs are also 3.3-V outputs and used for controlling the current to the LEDs, which controls the brightness. NOTE: The 12-V DC output on J23 should not be used to power the LED drive circuitry as it does not provide the necessary current when all three LED enables are simultaneous turned on. Doing so can cause a drop in the 12-V supply to the EVM regulator circuitry and reset the controller. 16 DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 Module Overview DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated DLP LightCrafter 6500 Connections www.ti.com 1.5.2 DLP LightCrafter 6500 Trigger Input and Output Voltage Selectors The trigger inputs on J20 are inputs from external devices to control the pattern sequence. While trigger input 2 is high, trigger input 1 will advance the pattern sequence to the next pattern in the sequence on every pulse. The trigger outputs on J24 are outputs to control external devices. While trigger output 1 going high indicates the start of the exposure time of the pattern (and going low indicates the stop), trigger output 2 marks the beginning of each pattern start with a 20 µs pulses. Trigger output 1 can be used for triggering a camera and capturing the patterns as they are displayed on some object. A computer can then use trigger output 2 to keep track of each pattern. The captured images can then be reassembled to produce, for example, a 3D point cloud. Both input and output triggers have voltage level selectors. Use J19, J21, J22, and J25 to select the voltage as shown in Figure 1-8. If no voltage is selected, then the onboard logic will not be functional and any outgoing or incoming signals will not available.

The enables should be used as a control to enable a regulator that provides the necessary current to the LEDs. The PWM outputs are also 3.3-V outputs and used for controlling the current to the LEDs, which controls the brightness. NOTE: The 12-V DC output on J26 should not be used to power the LED drive circuitry as it does not provide the necessary current when all three LED enables are simultaneous turned on. Doing so can cause a drop in the 12-V supply to the EVM regulator circuitry and reset the controller. 1.6.2 DLP LightCrafter 9000 Trigger Input and Output Voltage Selectors The trigger inputs on J23 are inputs from external devices to control the pattern sequence. While trigger input 2 is high, trigger input 1 will advance the pattern sequence to the next pattern in the sequence on every pulse. The trigger outputs on J27 are outputs to control external devices. While trigger output 1 frames the exposure time of the pattern, trigger output 2 pulses to mark the beginning of each pattern. 20 DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 Module Overview DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated DLP LightCrafter 9000 Connections www.ti.com Both input and output triggers have voltage level selectors.

Steps 1 through 6 show how to power, display an image, and connect the EVM to a PC. 1. Connect a 12-V DC power supply to the power supply connector J17 in Figure 1-5 or J20 in Figure 1-9. 2. LEDs — D8 and D9 on the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and D5, D11, and D12 on the DLP LightCrafter 9000 — light up green to indicate configuration and power is normal. 3. LEDs — D6 on the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and D7 and D9 on the DLP LightCrafter 9000 — toggle on and off, indicating DLPC900 is operating normally. 4. After 5 seconds, the DLPC900 displays a continuous pattern sequence. 5. Connect a USB cable from a PC to connector J7 on the DLP LightCrafter 6500, as seen in Figure 1-5 or J8 on the DLP LightCrafter 9000, as seen in Figure 1-9. The first time the cable is connected on a PC, the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 enumerates as a USB composite device with humaninterface device (HID) class. No drivers are required since these are natively handled by all operating systems. 6. The DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 EVMs can be controlled with the free GUI software version available for download from DLPLCR6500EVM or DLPLCR9000EVM. NOTE: Be sure to install DLP LightCrafter 6500 or 9000 GUI software version 2.0 or newer, operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 or 9000 EVM with GUI version 1.1 (or version 1.0) will render the EVM inoperable. NOTE: The DLPC900 does not have a dedicated INIT_DONE signal output to indicate that it has completed its power-up initialization and is ready to accept commands. The user may configure one of the nine GPIOs available as an INIT_DONE signal output simply by adding the GPIO configuration into a default batch file that is executed at power-up. A 10-kΩ pulldown resistor must be connected to the GPIO that will be used. The following is an example of adding the configuration for GPIO_08 to a batch file, where GPIO_08 is configured as an output and the signal is set high. When this command is added to the top of the batch file, the GPIO output will go high in approximately 800 ms from the time POSENSE goes high.

The GUI panel contains the following three sections: • System common controls and status on the left. • System feature controls buttons on the top. • Feature control panels in the center. In any of the GUI sections, clicking a Get button reads the current settings of that particular subsection. Clicking the Set button programs the settings into the respective subsection. Please note that some commands may require additional steps before the GUI display is updated. Figure 3-1. DLP LightCrafter 6500/9000 GUI 3.3 System Common Controls The DLP LightCrafter 6500 & 9000 GUI communicates with the DLPC900 using USB 1.1. The DLPC900 enumerates as a USB device with HID Support. The PC polls all the HID peripherals and, once the PC detects the DLPC900, the Connected radio-button changes to green. If the USB cable is disconnected, the Connected radio-button changes to red. Once the Connected radio-button shows green, the firmware Version and the Tag name are displayed. The Virtual Connection option is useful when there is no connection to the EVM. When the Virtual Connection is checked, all commands continue to operate as if there was a connection to the EVM except for firmware uploads and updating the Look Up Table (LUT). 28 Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated System Common Controls www.ti.com 3.3.1 Operating Mode Within the System Controls group box, the GUI will update the state of the EVM to indicate it is in Normal Operation or Standby Mode. The user may command the EVM into Standby Mode if the EVM will not be used or the Normal Operation can be selected to command the EVM to wake up. The user may click the Reset button to command the EVM to perform a software reset. The EVM can be commanded to enter one of the four operating modes. Within the Operating Mode group box there are four choices: 1. Video Mode – This mode is primarily used for display applications, and is not recommended for applications which require pixel and timing accuracy. In this mode, the user can choose from the four following video modes: • Parallel RGB interface • Internal test pattern generator with nine test patterns options • Pattern image display from flash memory • Solid Curtain with choice of color 2. Pre-stored Pattern Mode – In this mode, the user can create a pattern sequence using images stored in flash. 3. Video Pattern Mode – In this mode, the user can define a pattern sequence using pattern data or video which is streamed using a parallel RGB interface. 4. Pattern On-The-Fly Mode – In this mode, the user can create a pattern sequence using bitmap images which are loaded into the internal memory of the DLPC900 via the USB or I2C interfaces. This mode can be helpful to view a pattern sequence before storing the images in flash memory, as updating the flash to use Pattern Mode can be a timely process. 3.3.2 Chipset Type The GUI will query the EVM to determine if it is connected to a DLP LightCrafter 6500 or 9000. The indicators in the Chipset Type group box will be updated to show which of the two EVMs is connected. 3.3.3 EVM Information The Introduction Main Page will show an image of the EVM currently connected and helpful links to online resources. 3.3.4 Status The Status panel indicators show the current state of the DLPC900. When any of the boxes are checked, this indicates the stated text has occurred. Any boxes that state an error and remain checked must be corrected before continuing to operate the EVM. The following is a description of each status indicator: • System Memory Test – The DLPC900 performs an internal memory test at power-up. The box is checked if the test passed. • Controller/DMD Incompatible – The box can be checked if either the controller or DMD are incompatible with the firmware. There also may be an issue with communication between the controller and DMD, especially in the SCP lines. If this is the case, it could be caused by damage to the flex cable, the DMD not sitting properly in the socket, or a missing or damaged DMD. • Slave Present and Ready – The box is checked when the GUI is connected to a DLP LightCrafter 9000. If the GUI is connected to a DLP LightCrafter 9000 and the box is not checked, it could indicate that one or both of the DLPC900’s are malfunctioning. • Internal Initialization Complete – The box is checked when all power-up initialization routines have completed and passed. • DMD Reset Waveform Controller Error – The box is checked whenever the DMD Reset Controller has found multiple overlapping biases or reset operations accessing the same DMD block of micromirrors. • Forced Buffer Swap – The box is checked whenever a forced buffer swap occurs. This error can occur if the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 is set to Video Mode and the vertical back-porch timing is too DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated 29 System Common Controls www.ti.com small. The error can also occur if the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 is set to Video Pattern Mode where the patterns are from the video port and the pattern sequence timing do not match the video port VSYNC. Forced buffer swaps may also occur during any of the pattern modes in preparing a pattern sequence and the timing of reading the status. The user may need to perform additional reads of the status to get a correct state of this indicator. If the box continues to be checked, this could indicate an error condition in the pattern sequence. 30 Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated System Settings www.ti.com • • • • • • 3.4 Sequence Abort Status Flag – The box is checked whenever a sequence abort has occurred. Sequence abort may occur during any pattern mode in preparing a pattern sequence and the timing of reading the status. Additional status reads may be needed to get a correct state of this indicator. If the box continues to be checked, it could indicate an error condition in the pattern sequence. Sequence Error – The box is checked whenever a sequence error has occurred. Sequence errors may occur during any of the pattern modes in preparing a pattern sequence and the timing of reading the status. The user may need to perform additional reads of the status to get a correct state of this indicator. If the box continues to be checked, this could indicate an error condition in the pattern sequence. DMD Micromirrors Parked – The box is checked whenever the DMD micromirrors are parked. Sequencer Running – The box is checked whenever the sequencer is running. Video Running – The box is checked whenever video is running normally. Locked to External Source – The box is checked to indicated that the EVM has locked to an external parallel RGB video source. If the EVM loses the locked signal at any time, the box will become unchecked. A locked source must be present to switch to Video Pattern Mode. System Settings Click the System Settings button at the top of the GUI to display the System Settings panel shown in Figure 3-2. Figure 3-2. System Settings Panel DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated 31 Video Mode www.ti.com Within the System Settings panel, the user can control the orientation of the image, the LEDs, and the optical inversion. • Image Orientation – Depending on the orientation of the projected image, the image may require to be flipped on its short or long axis. The East/West setting causes the image to be flipped on its long axis. The North/South setting causes the image to be flipped on its short axis. This setting must be set before any Pattern LUT updates are sent to the DLPC900 and the pattern sequence must be in the stopped state. • LED Controls – The LED controls allows the user to manually control the state of the LEDs or allow the internal DLPC900 sequencer to control them. The LED current regulates the brightness of the LEDs. Setting the Invert PWM causes the LED currents to have an opposite effect on the LEDs as the current is changed. When manipulating the LED frequency and current, it is best to think of the led current value from 0-255 as the duty cycle where 255 equals 100%. Internally the software will then calculate the PWM value depending on the set frequency and duty cycle. Note, the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 do not come with LEDs or optical engines of any kind. • Pattern Display Invert Data – This setting allows the user to invert the data to the DMD. The setting must be set before any Pattern LUT updates are sent to the DLPC900 and the pattern sequence must be in the stopped state. This setting is not applicable to Video Mode. • DMD Park – This setting allows the user to park and un-park the DMD to start and stop displaying patterns. 3.5 Video Mode Click the Video Mode button at the top of the GUI to display the Video Mode panel as shown in Figure 33. Within this panel, there are five sections. Figure 3-3.

Input Configuration. • Source Select – Allows the user to select between: i. Parallel RGB interface ii. Internal test pattern generator iii. Pattern images from flash memory iv. Solid Curtain– which displays a constant, solid color image (including black and white) • Input Port Data Swap – Depending on the routing of the parallel RGB data lines, it may be necessary to swap the order of the color channels. Both the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 require ABC->BAC setting. ABC corresponded to RGB; therefore, the settings mentioned previously means that channels RG are swapped. The user can also select which port to apply the settings to. • Pixel Data Format – Allows the user to select the video format of the input source. 2. Internal Test Pattern Color – When the internal test pattern is selected as the input source, the foreground and background colors can be changed. 3. Display Dimensions – Allows the user to scale or crop the image of the incoming video source. 4. Port Config Controls – Depending on which input signals were chosen during board design, it may be necessary to select the appropriately signals so that the DLPC900 can properly detect the incoming video source. If incorrect settings are chosen, the curtain may be displayed or the image may be incorrect. Pixel Mode can also be set to Single Pixel or Dual Pixel. Dual Pixel allows for higher data rates by loading two pixels per clock instead of one pixel per clock. 5. IT6535 Receiver – This control allows selection between the HDMI or the DisplayPort input connectors of the IT6535 digital receiver. The digital receiver can also be powered-down, which will tri-state all the output signals of the IT6535 to allow another device to share the input ports and syncs of the DLPC900. 3.5.1 Video Support Table 3-1 shows the supported video for both EVMs. Table 3-1.

In step 2, select the Pre-Stored Patten radio-button and then proceed with step 3. 38 Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Pattern Modes www.ti.com 3.6.4 Reordering a Pattern Sequence using the Edit LUT Feature The Edit LUT feature is only available in Pre-Stored Pattern Mode and Pattern On-The-Fly Mode when using GUI 4.0 or later in conjunction with Firmware 5.0 or later. This feature allows the user to manipulate the pattern display sequence without having to reload or change any data in the DLPC900 memory. The Edit LUT button appears on the right hand side of the Pattern Mode tab after adding patterns as described in Section 3.6.2. Figure 3-9. Pattern Design Example The LUT Editor panel is shown in Figure 3-10 where the column labeled “SNO” (i.e. Sequence Number) represents the pattern display slot numbers according to the order set (after clicking Update LUT) in the Pattern Design tab as shown in Figure 3-9. The user can then reorder those patterns by either manually entering the pattern number of their choice into a row in the “LUT entry” column or loading a text file beginning with the word “Reorder” followed by the desired numerical pattern slots as shown in Figure 311. DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated 39 Pattern Modes www.ti.com Figure 3-10. LUT Editor Panel The following steps detail an example using the Edit LUT feature with five patterns in Pattern On-The-FlyMode: 1. By following the steps similar to Section 3.6.2, load five patterns in Pattern On-The-Fly-Mode as shown in Figure 3-9. 2. Set the exposure time to 1000000 us for ease of viewing. 3. Set an input trigger on Pattern 3 by checking the Trigger Input box. 4. Set all other user desired pattern property settings. 5. Click the Update LUT button and wait for all patterns to be uploaded to the EVM. 6. Click the Start button to view the pattern display order. 7. Click the Edit LUT button to open the LUT Editor panel as shown in Figure 3-10. This panel will initially open with an empty "LUT Entry" column. 8. To reorder the patterns, enter a "2" in "LUT Entry" row 1, and subsequently a "1", "3", "4", "0", and "1" as shown in Figure 3-10 . 9. Click the Stop button to stop the pattern sequence even if it is not currently running. 10. Check the Repeat box for display repetition of the new pattern sequence and then click the Reorder button. 11. Click the Start button to view the new pattern display order. 12. Click the Save button to save the new pattern sequence as a text file for later use. Name the file Reorderexample.txt and save it in a directory of choice. 13. Browse to wherever the text file was saved, and open the file in a text editor program as shown in 40 Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Pattern Modes www.ti.com Figure 3-11. 14. Notice at the top of the text file is the word "Reorder" which is required to successfully load a reorder file in the GUI. If desired, swap any of the pattern numbers to create a new pattern sequence and save the file. 15. Click the Load button and browse for Reorderexample.txt. 16. Click the Start button to view the new pattern display order. 17. Click the Stop button to stop the pattern sequence. 18. Click the Back button to return to the Pattern Mode tab. NOTE: NOTE: When using the GUI interface, each pattern carries several items of information corresponding to the slot that it was inserted in the original LUT order. Therefore, when reordering a pattern to a different slot in the LUT, it will retain its original assigned bit information, timing (exposure and dark time), LED color, and trigger information and NOT the information that is located in its reassigned slot in the LUT. For example, if pattern 3 contains a trigger input to begin the user’s execution in Figure 3-9 and is reordered to slot 2 as shown in Figure 3-10, the trigger input is now located at slot 3 in the LUT rather than slot 0. In PreStored Pattern Mode, reordering the LUT will not change the pattern locations as it does in Pattern On-The-Fly Mode. Only the requested bit information, timing, color, and trigger information will be reordered based on the user’s updated LUT. However, it is possible to manipulate the pattern information after reordering the sequence by manually editing the batch file commands uploaded to the EVM rather than using the GUI. Figure 3-11. Reorder Example It may be helpful to understand the Edit LUT feature by giving names to the patterns, as shown above the patterns in Figure 3-9, and treating them as the batting order in a baseball game.. This way, it is easier to picture the distinction between the slot order numbers in the "SNO" column (the new batting order) and the patterns that are inserted into the "LUT Entry" column (the batters). For example, Bob, retains his batting statistics independent of his batting position (i.e. bit information, timing, color, trigger), so if he is originally bats first (slot 0 in Figure 3-9) but is moved to fifth in the new batting order (reorder LUT entry 4 in Figure 3-10) he retains all of his properties. The only difference is that now he does not bat (i.e. is not displayed) until after the four batters (patterns) preceding him (Sue, Joe, Matt, and Sam). Notice also that in our example Joe bats twice in the new batting order (SNO 2 and 5). There is only one Joe, who bats twice in the new batting order. In the same way, a pattern in the original pattern list can be displayed in many positions in the reordered display LUT, without adding or removing any patterns in DLPC900 memory. Therefore in terms of the system memory, it is only changed when using the Update LUT feature but never when using the Edit LUT (Reorder) feature in the Figure 3-9. DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated 41 Pattern Modes 3.6.4.1 www.ti.com Special Considerations for Input Triggers when using the Edit LUT Feature Input triggers have some special considerations when using the new Edit LUT Feature. As previously noted, Pattern 3 (“Matt”) has an input trigger associated with it. When a trigger is added to a pattern, the pattern preceding it, Pattern 2 (“Sue”) in this case, will have an all-black pattern loaded at the very end of it so that while the sequence is waiting for the trigger it will not have a pattern displaying during the wait. This attribute will follow Pattern 2 during a reorder. In our example the first entry (Pattern 2) in the new display order will have a 105 µs dark pattern at the end of it. if Pattern 0 ("Bob") is placed in front of Pattern 3 ("Matt" - the triggered pattern) then the last bit-pattern of Pattern 0 (“Bob”) will continue to display in our new display order while waiting for the trigger in Pattern 3 (“Matt”). This behavior can be compensated for in one the following ways: • • • Consider Pattern 2 and 3 ("Sue" an "Matt") as a set that must always be moved together in your new display order. - This is the simplest method, but the tradeoff is that these two patterns are not separable without the undesired behaviors described above. Add a 1-bit all-black pattern with the shortest duration allowed (105 µs) preceding the trigger pattern. Now consider this pattern and the triggered pattern following it as a set that must always be moved moved together. - This is method is more versatile, but means that this pattern must always be a triggered pattern. Add a 1-bit all-black pattern with the shortest duration allowed (105 µs) followed by a triggered 1-bit allblack pattern (also with 105 µs duration), and remove the trigger from the actual pattern of interest. These two patterns will now be a versatile trigger set that can be used repeatedly wherever a trigger is desired. Note that since the triggered pattern is black, even if your exposure integration begins with the triggered black pattern there will be no light contributing to your exposure. - This method is the most versatile since this stand alone trigger set only has to be placed in the Pattern Index set (on the Pattern Mode page) once but can be used in many positions in a new display order (Pattern Display LUT Reorder Configuration). 3.6.5 Creating a Pattern Sequence in Video Pattern Mode Creating a Video Pattern Mode sequence is also similar to Pattern On-The-Fly Mode. The difference is that the patterns will be streamed from the input video source. The user must create the video images and then input them through the RGB parallel interface. The input video source vertical sync will be used as the triggering mechanism. The input video source must be stable and locked and continuously being applied, otherwise the firmware will detect that the source was lost and a solid curtain will be displayed. While the video source is stable and locked, the status box for Locked to External Source will remain checked. Follow these steps to create a Video Pattern Mode sequence. 1. Make sure the EVM is powered up and operating correctly, and the Connected radio-button is lit green. 2. Select Video Mode from the Operating Mode group box, and then select the HDMI radio-button from the IT6535 Receiver group box and finally click the Set button. (Select the DisplayPort radio-button if using this input connector). The Locked to External Source status box should be checked after a few seconds. 3. Verify the video source is displayed. If no video source is displayed, then make sure the PC or host is suppling the correct resolution and frame rate. See Table 3-1 for video support. 4. Select Video Pattern Mode from the Operating Mode group box, and then click the Pattern Design button so that the large black panel is displayed as shown in Figure 3-4. 5. Click the Add Pattern button on the Menu bar and add 3 patterns. 6. Click the Select All Patterns button to select all images. 7. Set exposure time to 1215 µs and dark time to 0 µs. 8. Select the first image and select a bit depth of 2, start bit G0, and color Green. 9. Select the second image and select a bit depth of 4, start bit R0, and color Red. 10. Select the third image and select a bit depth of 3, start bit B0, and color Blue 11. Click the Select All Patterns button. 42 Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Pattern Modes www.ti.com 12. 13. 14. 15. 16.

See DMD Block Load command in the DLPC900 Software Programmer’s Guide (DLPU018) for a description of this command. Follow these steps to create a Pattern On-The-Fly pattern sequence with only three DMD active blocks. 1. Make sure the EVM is powered up and operating correctly, and the Connected radio-button is lit green. 2. Select Pattern On-The-Fly Mode from the Operating Mode group box, and then select the Pattern Design button so that the large black panel is displayed as shown in Figure 3-4. 3. Select the Load button from the menu bar and select the Block_Load.txt file located in the sample images directory. Be sure to select the correct file for the EVM being used. 4. The pattern design should look similar to Figure 3-13. 5. Select the Pattern Settings button. 6. Within the DMD Active Blocks, select 6 for the Start Block and select 8 for the End Block, and then Select Set. 7. Select the Pattern Design button. 8. Select the Update LUT button. 9. Select the Start button to run the sequence. 10. Select the Stop button to end this example. You will notice that pattern 0 is displayed the same way as pattern 2 even though pattern 0 contains image data for all blocks. This shows that only blocks 6, 7, and 8 are active while all other blocks are in the off state. NOTE: The performance of the mirrors in the blocks that are not active will be affected by prolonged use of being in the off state. To optimize the mirrors, DMD Idle Mode should be enabled as often as possible. This mode will provide a 50/50 duty cycle across the entire DMD mirror array, where the mirrors are continuously flipped between the on and off states. See DMD Idle Mode command in the DLPC900 Software Programmer’s Guide (DLPU018) for a description of this command. The DMD Idle Mode command is located in Section 3.6.7 within the Pattern Mode panel. 44 Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Pattern Modes www.ti.com Figure 3-13.

Within this panel, the user can select the output delays of Trigger 1 and 2 and the input delay for Trigger In 1 and 2. The output delays are from the start of the pattern on the DMD. Trigger In 1 and 2 can be delayed to have a later affect from when the external device performed the trigger. All signals can be inverted. The LED controls can also be delayed. These delays are from the start of the pattern on the DMD. Minimum LED Pulse Width control allows the system to have much higher pattern speeds. Input the minimum LED Pulse Width specific to your illumination system to achieve higher pattern speeds through illumination modulation. Illumination modulation occurs with 8-bit patterns at rates faster than 1031Hz, by modulating the light source to shorten the shortest bits, therefore increasing the maximum pattern speed. The LED_EN signals from the DLPC900 can be used to control the illumination modulation of the LEDs. The DMD Active Blocks allows a subset of DMD blocks to be activated, while the mirrors in the non selected blocks are set to the off state. See Section 3.6.6 for an example of using this mode. When operating with a subset of DMD blocks, the DMD Idle Mode should be enabled as often as possible. For example, whenever the system is idle, between exposures if the application allows for it, or when the exposure pattern sequence is stopped. To enable the DMD Idle Mode, the pattern sequence must be stopped. To restart the pattern sequence, the DMD Idle Mode must be disabled. The DMD Idle Mode provides a 50/50 duty cycle across the entire DMD mirror array, where the mirrors are flipped between the on and off states to optimize the performance of the mirrors. The Image Compression option allows for control of the compression type that occurs to the pattern images. • The Uncompressed option will not attempt to compress the images. • The Run Length Encoding (RLE) option is a lossless compression method that compresses the pattern data using horizontal pixel similarities. • The Enhanced RLE option is a lossless compression method that compresses the pattern data using vertical and horizontal pixel similarities. • The Auto option will do all three compression types. It will then use the one that takes up the smallest amount of data. More information on these compression types can be found in the DLPC900 Programmer's Guide. 46 Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Pattern Modes www.ti.com Figure 3-14.

If the Enable Command Logging box is checked, the panel will display all the commands the user clicks on the GUI. When clicking the Save Batch File button, the content that is in the panel is saved to a text file containing the command descriptor followed by the command data. This batch file can then be re-loaded at a later time using the Load Batch File button and executed or it can be added to the firmware to be executed using the Batch files Stored in the EVM group box. This group box lists all the batch files currently in the firmware. Figure 3-15. Batch Files Panel 3.7.1 Execute Batch File The DLPC900 firmware has the option to store batch files within the firmware. These batch files contain commands that are executed to perform some sequence of settings without the user or host performing these commands. If the firmware contains batch files, the GUI will query the batch file names and list them in the Batch Command Sequence panel within the Batch Files Stored in the EVM group box. The user can then choose a batch file from the list to execute it. The user can also designate a default batch file to be executed during the DLPC900 power-up sequence when the power is applied. For example, if the LEDs are to remain off after power has been applied to the EVM, a batch file can be created with the commands to turn the LEDs off, and then update the firmware with this batch file as the default. The updated firmware can then be uploaded to the EVM. The next time the power is applied to the EVM, the LEDs will be disabled from turning on. See the DLPC900 Programmers Guide for the batch file commands in Appendix B for a complete list of commands that can be used within a batch file. 48 Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Batch Files www.ti.com 3.7.2 Creating and Saving Batch Files There are two methods to create and save batch files: • Use the GUI • Use a text editor 3.7.2.1 Creating and Saving a Batch File Using the GUI This example will contain the following set of commands: a.

When using the I2C interfaces, first configure the I2C port using the commands within the I2C Settings and then perform data transfers using the commands within the I2C Read/Write. The Clock A Configuration group box allows the user to enable and control the output frequency of OCLKA. The clock can be used as a source to some external logic. The GPIO Configuration group box allows the user to configure any of the nine available GPIOs. These GPIOs can be configured as inputs or outputs. The Pulse Width Modulate Control group box allows a user to configure any of the four available PWM outputs. NOTE: GPIO_00 – GPIO_03 are shared with the four PWM outputs. 52 Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Firmware www.ti.com 3.9 Firmware Click the Firmware button to display the Firmware panel as shown in Figure 3-18. In this panel a user can update the firmware with patterns, batch files, and set start-up conditions. To update the firmware on the EVM click the Browse button and locate the firmware file for the EVM type. Before clicking the Upload button, verify the EVM is powered-up, operating normally, and connection has been established with the GUI. Within the Power up Defaults group box, a user can select the default power-up state by checking the Start up State checkbox and then selecting the state from the drop-down list box. If the IT6535 digital receiver is present on the hardware, then the user may enable the use of this receiver by checking the HDMI/DP Receiver checkbox. If a default batch file is needed, then see the Batch File section in this guide. The DLPC900 can also be controlled over the I2C interface on I2C port 0. The default DLPC900 slave address is 0x34. This address is programmable using the I2C Slave Address within the Power up Defaults group box. The GUI permits the user to perform a bus swap on the DMD by checking the DMD Bus Swap box and selecting between Channels A and B. This feature is a firmware configuration option that will only take effect after uploading the firmware onto the EVM. When using the DLP LightCrafter 6500, it is recommended to only checkbox the Master option as this EVM does not include a Master and Slave. However, when using the DLP LightCrafter 9000, the user may perform a bus swap on both the Master and the Slave by selecting each checkbox per desired channel. The GUI also permits the user to enable Spread Spectrum Clock Generator Support. The user can select from .5%, .75%, or 1% in the drop down menu. This option uses internally controlled clock spreading to help minimize EMI due to high-speed signals. More information on the spread spectrum feature and DMD bus swapping can be found in the DLPC900 datasheet.

Firmware Panel 3.9.1 Adding or Removing Patterns from the Firmware For most efficient storage and compression of images, the GUI will pack the images into groups of 24-bit RGB bitmap images. This means if there are 1-bit black and white images, 8-bit gray scale images, or any other image bit-depth (up to 24-bit images), they will be combined to create a composite image. For example, a composite image could be composed of 24 1-bit images, 3 8-bit images, or a combination of images of various bit-depths which add up to a 24-bit composite image. The GUI will then compress each 24-bit image using the Enhanced Run-Length Encoding described in the DLPC900 Programmer's Guide. These compressed images are then decompressed as they are loaded into the DLPC900 internal memory when operating in Pre-Stored Pattern Mode or Pattern On-The-Fly Mode. The EVM is capable of holding up 400 1-bit binary or 50 8-bit binary compressed patterns in flash memory. Depending on the compression ratio, more than 400 patterns can be stored to have multiple pattern sets for multiple pattern sequences. These patterns are then loaded when the operating mode is set to Pre-Stored Pattern Mode. The remainder of this topic will apply only to Pre-Stored Pattern Mode. The DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 EVMs are pre-loaded with a pattern sequence that is displayed when power is applied to the EVMs. Since the GUI does not know the images that are stored in flash memory, it is advisable to delete all images from flash before storing new ones. When adding images to the Pattern Design panel, the GUI will always begin with image index Zero. However, the GUI saves the images to the firmware by appending them to the end of the last image that is in the firmware if any. 54 Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Firmware www.ti.com For example, assume there are two 24-bit images stored in the firmware. These two images will have index values of 0 and 1. If then a pattern sequence is created in the Pattern Design panel, where the GUI packs all the images into four 24-bit images, and then saved to the firmware, the four images will be appended to the firmware and have index values of 2, 3, 4, and 5. When the firmware is uploaded to the EVM and the pattern sequence is started, the sequence of images will be 0, 1, 2, 3 rather than 2, 3, 4, 5. First begin by examining the images that are currently in the firmware. 1. Apply power to the EVM and allow display of the pattern sequence. 2. Select Video Mode from the Operating Mode group box. 3. Click the Source Select drop-down list box, and select Images From Flash. 4. Below the Source Select drop-down list box, select 0. 5. Click the Set button. 6. Continue to index through all the values until the GUI gives an error that the image does not exist. This represents the images that are stored in flash. Return to the video source by selecting the Parallel RGB interface from the Source Select drop-down list box and click the Set button. If there is a video source connected to the EVM, the source will be displayed, otherwise a solid curtain will be displayed. 3.9.1.1 Deleting Images When deleting images from flash, the flash device is erased and then updated with the firmware that contains the new images. In the event the flash is accidentally corrupted, follow the instructions under JTAG Flash Programming to reload the original firmware. To remove accidental erasing or corruption of the flash device, it is recommended to operate in Pattern On-The-Fly Mode. CAUTION The user must exercise caution when selecting the correct firmware file. Ensure that firmware file is version 3.0 or later. (Using version 2.0 or earlier will render the EVM inoperable). Follow these steps to begin deleting images from the firmware file 1. Apply power the EVM and allow normal operation. 2. Click the Firmware button on the top of the GUI. 3. Click the Browse button. 4. Select a suitable firmware file or the original firmware file that comes with the EVM. 5. Add a tag name for this updated firmware file by adding a name in the Firmware Tag box. 6. Check the box next to Clear All Existing Patterns Images and Batch Files. 7. Click the Update Firmware button. 8. The GUI will display a pop-up box providing the name of the updated firmware file. NOTE: When updating firmware for the DLP LightCrafter 9000, the GUI will create two firmware files: one for the master controller and one for the slave controller. When selecting a firmware file or an updated version, select both firmwareimg-master.img and firmwareimgslave.img files by clicking both files while holding the Ctrl key. 9. Click the Browse button and select the firmware file from step 8. The updated firmware file has no images. It is advisable to rename the updated firmware file with a specific name so that later it can be reused as a firmware file that has no images.

Check the box next to Clear Existing Patterns. These patterns are from the Pattern Design panel. See Figure 3-8. 11. Click the Update Firmware button. 12. The GUI will display a pop-up box providing the name of the updated firmware file. 13. Click the Browse button and select the firmware file from step 12. 14. Click the Upload button and allow firmware to be uploaded to the flash memory. NOTE: When a firmware file is uploaded, a cached version of that file will be created on the PC in its original folder location. Each time a new firmware is uploaded the GUI will compare it to the cache file on the PC and only reprogram the new sectors. The cache file will then be updated to represent the latest firmware image. This can lead to significant download speed improvements if the new firmware and the previous firmware are similar. If a full reprogramming of the flash is desired, the user can delete the cache folder or select a firmware image from a different file location. 15. Once the EVM resets and displays a solid curtain, click the Pre-Stored Pattern Mode from the Operating Mode group box. 16. The Pattern Design panel (See Figure 3-8) will be displayed that includes the pattern images that were added into the panel in step 3 with all the settings from steps 5-8. If the Pattern Design panel is not displayed, then click the Pattern Mode button at the top of the GUI. Press Stop if pattern sequence is currently playing. 17. Click the Update LUT button. 18. Click the Start button. 19. All 72 images should be displayed with the settings that were entered in steps 5-8. It is possible to add many images to the firmware without deleting all the images that are currently in the firmware, and then select which images and bit positions to chose for different pattern sequences. To do this requires editing the image index and the bit position in the Pattern LUT Definition that is sent to the EVM, and then using the Batch File method to upload the Pattern LUT Definition and Configuration settings to the EVM. 56 Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 DLPU028D – October 2014 – Revised March 2019 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014–2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Firmware www.ti.com The following example shows how to choose different images and bit positions from the 72 images that are stored in the firmware.
