DLP4500: Unable to get flash manufacture ID

Hi Nikhil,

The release will be out soon but we are unable to provide a timeframe. Meantime, you can try these steps:

1. Install QT v4.2.1.
2. Unzip the "LightCrafter4500_GUI_Source_Code_v3.1.0.zip" located at the GUI installation directory.
3. Inside the extracted folder, go to the GUI folder, find the file LCr4500.pro and open it with QT. 
4. In the project, find out "dlpc350_usb.cpp", open it. Delete ONLY line 84 (DeviceHandle = hid_open(MY_VID, MY_PID, NULL);) and paste the following snippet at in place of line 84 and save the file.

    struct hid_device_info *hid_info;
    hid_info = hid_enumerate(MY_VID, MY_PID);
    if(hid_info == NULL)
    {
        USBConnected = 0;
        return -1;
    }

    DeviceHandle = NULL;

    if(0 == hid_info->interface_number)
    {
        DeviceHandle = hid_open_path(hid_info->path);
    }
    else
    {
        struct hid_device_info *hid_next_info = hid_info->next;

        if(hid_next_info != NULL)
        {
            DeviceHandle = hid_open_path(hid_next_info->path);
        }
    }

5. In the project, find out "mainwindow.cpp", open it. Delete ONLY line no. 7257 ("DLPC350_WaitForFlashReady();") and save it. 

6. Build and run the project. GUI will start automatically after the project has built. Now try to flash the LCR4500 again, it should successfully flash it.

Kindly let us know if this works. 

Thanks & Regards,

Hirak.
