3.1 Getting Started

The following steps must be followed in starting board operation using the default APPSFPGA code installed at the factory:

  1. Connect the desired DMD EVM to the DLPLCRC410EVM using the provided flex cables. A single flex cable connects J13 to either the DLPLCR70EVM, DLPLCR70UVEVM, or the DLPLCR65NEVM. Two flex cables attached to J13 and J14 are used for the DLPLCR95EVM and DLPLCR95UVEVM.
  2. Confirm all SW1 switches are in the OFF position. Confirm all five J2 jumpers are in place. If using a DLPLCR95EVM and DLPLCR95UVEVM confirm J10 is installed.
  3. Connect a 5 Volt, 6 Amp power supply to either power input connector J12 or J18 (not both) with the power supply OFF.
  4. Turn the power supply ON and then slide SW4 to ON. D2 and D3 briefly illuminates to indicate the APPSFPGA and DLPC410 Controller are being configured. Once configuration is complete, D2 and D3 turns off and D16 and D17 illuminates green. D9 flashes green at 1 Hz. D10 displays green. From this point, the DMD repeatedly cycles through several test patterns.

To stop operation:

  1. TI highly recommends to float the DMD mirrors to set the mirrors to a flat state before powering off. Press SW3 to float the DMD.
  2. Turn power OFF.
