5: 13504PLAY DIAGNOSTIC UTILITY
3-22 EPSON UTILITIES (S19A-B-001-03)
5.4 13504PLAY Example
1. Type "13504PLAY" to start the program.
2. Type "?" for help.
3. Type "i" to initialize the registers.
4. Type "xa" to display the contents of the registers.
5. Type "x 5" to read register 5.
6. Type "x 3 10" to write 10 hex to register 3.
7. Type "f 0 ffff aa" to fill the first FFFF hex bytes of display memory with AA hex.
8. Type "f 0 1fffff aa" to fill 2M bytes of display memory.
9. Type "r 0 ff" to read the first 100 hex bytes of display memory.
10. Type "q" to exit the program.
5.5 Scripting
13504PLAY can be driven by a script file. This is useful when:
• there is no display output and a current register status is required,
• various registers must be quickly changed to view results.
A script file is an ASCII text file with one 13504PLAY command per line. All scripts must end with
a “q” (quit) command.
On a PC platform, a typical script command line is: “13504PLAY < dumpregs.scr > results.”
This causes the file “dumpregs.scr” to be interpreted and the results to be sent to the file “results.”
Example: Create an ASCII text file that contains the commands i, xa, and q.
; This file initializes the S1D13504 and reads the registers
; Note: after a semi-colon (;), all characters on a line are ignored
i
xa
q
5.6 Comments
• All numeric values are considered to be hexadecimal unless identified otherwise. For example,
10 = 10h = 16 decimal; 10t = 10 decimal; 010b = 2 decimal.
• Redirecting commands from a script file (PC platform) allows those commands to be executed as
though they were typed.
• The PC must not have more than 12M bytes of memory when used with the S5U13504P00C
board.
• Follow simultaneous display guidelines for correct simultaneous display operation.
• To determine if the CRT will operate correctly when using a dual panel, refer to the “Maximum
Frame Rates” table in the “S1D13504 Hardware Functional Specification,” document number
S19A-A-002-xx.
• When editing in 13504CFG with CRT enabled and panel disabled, select “Single Panel” from the
“Edit Panel Setup” submenu.
• When a CRT is enabled, the CRT settings will override the panel settings. If a panel is also used,
the CRT timing values will have to be changed to more closely match the panel's timing.
• A CRT cannot show 15 or 16 bits-per-pixel.
• Do not attach a panel with a 16-bit interface to the S1D13504 when a CRT is also attached.
