Hello,

I am wondering if micro-manager DLP4000 is compatible with the Texas Instrument’s newest DLP version 4500 LightCrafter [[https://www.ti.com/tool/DLPLCR4500EVM](https://www.ti.com/tool/DLPLCR4500EVM)]. Or, how would you go about using the GenericSLM [[GenericSLM](https://micro-manager.org/GenericSLM)] for this model? I need my DLP to display specific patterns at a high rate for optogenetic purposes. Please note, my device comes with USB and a Mini HDMI.

Thank you!

That board has a mini-HDMI input, so should work with the GenericSLM adapter (provided that its software let’s you set it into a mode where it displays whatever comes in on the HDMI input)… Not sure how fast that will go. For full (triggered) functionality, you would need to code a device adapter that interface to the SDK they provide.
