4.2.1 Connection

The first step in running the GUI requires the user to establish connection to the FTDI cable. The GUI will attempt to automatically connect to the FTDI cable at start-up. To manually connect the FTDI cable, navigate to the Connection page. With the FTDI cable selected from the drop-down interface list, click the Connect button. Note, the Connection settings must be a clock rate of 5 MHz and timeout of 500 ms. When using the Cheetah™ interface, the clock rate can be increased to 16 MHz in SPI Mode 0 and MSB first bit order.

Note:

The FTDI cable must be disconnected/released from DLP Composer if DLP Composer was previously used to flash program the EVM. The FTDI cable cannot be shared simultaneously between DLP Composer and DLP Control Program.
