DLP6500FLQ: SDK suitable for LabVIEW Control

Part Number: DLP6500FLQ

Hello E2E Experts,

Good day.

I have a DLP6500FLQ .65” 1080p Type-A DMD, 400nm - 700nm that I am looking to establish LabVIEW control of. I was planning on using a DLL wrapper for the API commands from the 'DLP® Advanced Light Control Software Development Kit for LightcrafterTM Evaluation Modules User’s Guide.

However, the SDK listed on the DLP6500FLQ seems to be from 2016 and a bunch of the supporting software is 32-bit.

Is there a more up-to-date version of this SDK that is available or should I proceed with the one on the webpage for the DLP6500FLQ?

The system that this will run on is Windows 10 64-bit.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Regards,

CSC

  • Hi CSC Team,

    The SDK is no longer supported. There is, however, a Git Hub repository that you may use for your LabVIEW wrapper here:
    https://github.com/.../hidapi

    Assuming that you are using your Windows 10 machine as a host sending data over USB, you need to call an HID API and then use the programmer's manual for building and parsing the message packets.

    You will need the hid_write, hid_read, and other functions found in the default DLPC900REF GUI directory:
    C:\Texas Instruments-DLP\DLPC900REF-SW-5.0.0\DLPC900REF-SW-5.0.0\DLPC900REF-GUI\Source\hidapi-master\windows\Release

    You may create a wrapper using the *.h header files found here:
    C:\Texas Instruments-DLP\DLPC900REF-SW-5.0.0\DLPC900REF-SW-5.0.0\DLPC900REF-GUI\Source\hidapi-master\hidapi

    You may find the GUI in the same place you found the SDK on TI's website for the DLPLCR6500FLQ under the Software Development tab.

  • Hi again CSC,

    Do you still need assistance with the API? Please let me know if the previous bit of information has worked for you or if you need any further assistance.

    Thank you,
