Pattern Generation

To create an image/patterm, you can use the POV image maker application. Maker.PNG

Uploading the Pattern

  • Install USBasp driver on your computer. Note that the it will show up as not recognized if the reset sequence is not followed

Reset Sequence for uploading new pattern/image

POV Reset Sequence for uploading new image
  • Perform reset sequence every time you connect the kit to the computer.
  • To upload a new image, hold down the BOOT button, press and release the RESET button and then release the BOOT button as shown below.
  • Note the LEDS will stop blinking once the kit is detected by the computer.
