Lightcrafter 6500 Python Image Upload

Hello,

I am currently working on communicating with the Lightcrafter 6500 over python. I have successfully been able to change the device modes and start/stop the device, but have not been able to send an image to the dmd.

If anyone has this, I would appreciate an example snippet of code that breaks down a bitmap into the appropriate series of commands, without RLE compression.

I tried packet sniffing what the GUI sends to the dmd over USB, but have not been able to reconcile this with what is written in the programming manual.

Thank you

AM

  • Hi AM,

    The source code for the GUI, including the code for BMP parsing was temporarily removed from the web to fix a bug. It should be back online in the coming couple weeks or so. If you have any specific questions about how the image information is sent, let me know. In the meantime, hopefully someone in the community will be able to share some code that they have written!

    Thanks,
    Trevor
