DLPU028C – October 2014 – Revised November 2016

Quick Start

This chapter offers a quick start guide to power-up the EVM, run the GUI control software, and create a
simple three pattern sequence.

2.1

Power-up the DLP LightCrafter 6500 or 9000

The DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 are ready to use, out of the box. 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 1-7

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 1-7

. The first time the cable is connected on a

PC, the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000 enumerates as a USB composite device with human-
interface 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 2.0 or

newer (available for download from

DLPLCR6500EVM

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.

2.2

Creating A Simple Pattern Sequence

Before creating a pattern sequence, make sure to follow the steps in

Section 2.1

. Download and execute

the DLPC900REFSW Windows-Installer, and then start the DLP LightCrafter 6500 & 9000 GUI
application. The GUI will detect the EVM, and the

Connected

radio-button will light up

Green

indicating the

connection was successful. The GUI software includes sample images for both the DLP LightCrafter 6500
and 9000 that will be used in the examples in this guide. If the sample image files have not been unzipped
during the installation process, then within the GUI install directory, unzip the image files to gain access to
all the sample images. All images are 1-bit binary patterns and have the native resolution of 1920x1080 or
2560x1600 for the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000, respectively.

Follow these steps to create a pattern sequence. See

Figure 3-5

to identify the buttons on the Menu bar.

1. Select

Pattern On-The-Fly Mode

from the

Operating Mode

group box, and click the

Pattern Design

button so that the panel is displayed as shown in

Figure 2-1

2. Click the

Add Pattern

button (with the plus sign) in the

Menu

bar and browse for any three bitmap

images from the sample of images. Be sure to select them from the correct image folder for the EVM
that is being used. All three images can be selected at the same time within the open file dialog
window, but may not appear in the same order in the GUI as in the dialog window.

3. Select the first pattern within the

Pattern Design

panel and choose a bit depth of 1. Set exposure to

100000 µs, dark time to 50000 µs, and select

Red

for the color.
