Build Procedure
1 Start IDEU8, select the menu “Open” and open the project file (PID file). In the case that MCU memory model
is small model, the project file is “U8_Lcd_Sample_Small.PID”. In the case of large model, the project file is
“U8_Lcd_Sample_Large.PID”. Correspondence of MCU and PID file is shown below.
Table 1.4_1 Correspondence of MCU and PID file
Supported MCU
U8_Lcd_Sample_Small.PID
ML610Q431/432
U8_Lcd_Sample_Large.PID
ML610Q435/436
2 In the default setting, ML610Q431 is set as the target MCU.
If your target MCU is different, follow the procedure below to change the setting.
(1) Select the menu “Project” -> “Options” -> “Compiler/assembler”.
(2) In the displayed window, select the target MCU from the “Target microcontroller” list in the
“General” tab.
(3) Remove the startup file “S610431SW.asm“ registered in the file tree of IDEU8. Instead of that,
register your target MCU’s startup file. (In the case of ML610Q432, it is S610432SW.asm.)
(4) Define the macro that represents the target MCU.
Select the menu “Project” -> “Options” -> “Compiler/assembler” -> ”Macro”tab. In the displayed
window, modify the macro like following name.
_ML610Q4XX
About the “XX” part, replace with the type number of MCU
For example, if ML610Q432 is used, define the following macro.
_ML610Q432
In the case that the macro other than the type number in the above Table 1.4_1 is defined, the case
that macro such as above is not defined, or the case that the memory model that is supported by PID
file is different from the memory model of MCU that is defined by the above macro, the compiler
issues the following error at the beginning of the output messages.
Error : E2000 : #error : “Unknown target MCU”
3 If you want to run the sample program on the simulator, after this, operate according to the section “5 How to
run the sample program”.
4 Select the menu “Project” -> “Options” -> “Compiler/assembler” -> ”Macro”tab. In the displayed window, modify
the macro LCD_TYPE. In the case that the type of LCD is 1, 2 or 3, define LCD_TYPE as 0, 1, or 2, respectively.
About the type of LCD, see the section “4.2 Definition”.
5 Select the menu “Project” -> “Rebuild”. Then the build procssing for the sample program starts.
6 When the build processing is completed, .abs file is generated in the project folder and .hex file is generated in
_output¥_hex folder.

About Functions of Sample Program
This sample program is available on only ML610Q43X series MCU.
Note: This sample program is not available on ML610Q42X and ML610Q41X series MCU, because LCD driver does
not support the number of LCD’s COM/SEG pin which is required for operating the application. Also this sample
program is not available on ML610Q48X series MCU, because it does not have LCD driver.

Mechanism of LCD Driver
This section describes the outline of LSI’s operation to turn on and off patterns, displayed on LCD. In detail, please see
the User’s Manula of your target LSI.
The LCD driver provides the following types of contorol methods, depending on the specification of the LCD panel to
be used.
Fixed display allocation
The mapping of the display register and the common/segment pin, that is described later, is already fixed.
Programmable display allocation
By using LSI’s programmable display allocation function, a user defines the mapping of the display register and
common/segment pin.
There are three types of registers which are used to control the turn-on/off for the displayed patterns on LCD.
Display register
The display register is used to store the contents to be displayed to LCD as bit patterns.
Display allocation register
The display allocation register is used to control the mapping of the display register for the LCD common/segment pin.
This register can be used when the programmable display allocation is selected. If the fixed display alloction is selected,
it can be used as data memory space.
Display control register group
The display control register group is used to control output of the on waveform to the common/segment pin, bias, duty
and contrast.
Figure 2-1 Configuration of LCD Display Function
To make the program which controls the turn-on/off for the displayed patterns on LCD, follow the procedure below.
1 Determine the control method that meets the specification of the LCD panel to be used.
2 Set the application specific configuration to the display control registers.
3 If the programmable display allocation, define the display allocation register.
4 Set the the contents to be displayed into the display register.
After this, change the setting in the procedure 2 and 4, if necessary.
[Important]
In the procedure 3, define the display allocation register on the condition that DASN bit is 0. When DASN bit
is 1, read/write operations from CPU are invalid.
Also, when using the programmable display allocation, select type 3 for the display register segment map.

LCD Operation Details
This section describes the details of each step in the program development procedure that is introduced in the section 3.
4.1.
Preparation
This subsection introduces the segment naming rule, the pin assignment and DSPR arrangement, which make
programming easy, by giving the implementation of the sample program as a example.
4.1.1. How to determine the segment name
Make the naming rule for the segment.
In the sample program, the segment name is determined by the following naming rule.
In the case of 7 segment, the display parts of a character are named clockwise a, b, c, …, g from the top part.
This goes for also 16 segment, but outer parts are a, b, c, …, h and inner parts are i, j, k, …, p.
* Name the segments for each clump of seguments, so that the segments can be identified easily when they are
sorted by name.
In the case of dot matrix, name each dot by its row and column values, from the upper left to the lower right.

4.1.2. How to determine COM/SEG pin
When using the fixed display allocation, the hardware allocates SEG pin to DSPR address, and allocates COM pin to a
bit in DSPR address. Then, please allocate COM pin and SEG pin so that the display data is easily handled as a
particular unit (e.g. 7 segment) by software. When using the programmable display allocation, we can determin the
allocation for these pins as we like, so that we can wire the segments easily.(But, the number of available COM pin
becomes 8.)
4.1.3. How to determine the DSPR arrangement
When using the fixed display allocation, SEG pin is allocated to DSPR address, and COM pin is allocated to a bit in
DSPR address. When using the programmable display allocation, DSPR can be arrenged as we like, so that we can
handle the display data easily by software. For example, we can collect display data as a clump (e.g. 7 segment or dot
matrix) so that the display data can be handled easily, and arrange DSPR to the direction which the display character
controled to.
When the segment name, COM/SEG pin and DSPR arrangement are determined, write the result into the work sheet
like Table 4.1.3_1.

Confirmation
Confirm the contents of the definition of each segment and bit by using LCD Assignment Tool. Dragging with the left
button of mouse pressing on Assignment List window, more than one segment can be selected.The selected segment is
displayed with red color on Image window. So it would be better to confirm by selecting each clump of segment (e.g.
7SEG).

Debug
Working with DTU8 debugger, Confirm the displayed contents of LCD panel,
There are two ways of displaying the contents.
Snapshot
Display the contents of DSPR to LCD Image Check Tool at any point of time.
Auto update
Display the contents of DSPR to LCD Image Check Tool at at regular intervals. It is useful to see the transition of
the LCD panel image.
4.5.1. Snapshot
The following is the procedure to display the panel image by snapshot.
1 Start DTU8 and load the program to be debugged.
2 Set a breakpoint at the location (address) in the source window of DTU8, where you want to display DSPR,
and execute the program.(Figure 4.5.1_1)
3 Select “Tool”->” Script command” from the menu of DTU8, and then save the contents of DSPR
into a file by using “sfrsav” command. (Figure 4.5.1_2)
4 Start LCD Image Check Tool. Select the menu “File” -> “Load DSPR Data File” and specify the output file from 3.
Then, LCD panel image is displayed in the Image window of LCD Image Check Tool.(Figure 4.5.1_3)

Load the contents of DSPR
[Format of sfrsav command]
sfrsav <filename> [<start address> <end address>]
<filename> :
Specify the filename which the contents of DSPR are saved in.
If the extension is omitted, .ram is specified by default.
<start address> <end address> :
Specify the output range. The range from 0F0F0H to 0F1FFH, shown in Figure 4.5.1_2,
is the range that the display control resisters and DSPR are located.
About the location of resisters, see the User’s manual of LSI.
4.5.2. Auto update
The following is the procedure to display the panel image by auto update.
1 Start DTU8 and load the program to be debugged.
2 Confirm the location (address) in the source window of DTU8, where you want to display DSPR.(Figure 4.5.2_1)
3 Make the macro script for auto update.(Figure 4.5.2_2) Specify .mcr as the extention of the macro script file.
Here, assume the filename is test.mcr.
4 To update automatically on LCD Image Check Tool, select the menu “Tool” -> “Start Auto Update Mode”
and specify the macro script file that is made in the procedure 3.
If this file does not exist, the message, like Figure 4.5.2_3, is issued. Then, press “Yes”.
5 Select “Tool” -> ”Run macro” from the menu of DTU8, and specify the file made in the procedure 3.
Then, LCD panel image is updated at at regular intervals on LCD Image Check Tool.
into a file by using “sfrsav” command. (Figure 4.5.1_2)
6 To stop the display, select the menu “File” -> “Stop Auto Update Mode” on LCD Image Check Tool
and stop the macro execution on DTU8.

How to run the sample program
This section introduces how to build the sample program and how to run on the DTU8 simulator.
5.1.
Modify source code
In the sample program, there are the program codes for the watch dog timer (WDT) clear procedure. Because the DTU8
simulator does not support WDT operation, if this WDT clear procedure runs on the simulator, it will not finish (that is,
enter an eternal loop).
Therefore, only in the case that you run the sample program according to this section, please delete or comment out the
WDT clear procedures, which are described at the following places in the source code.
[WDT clear procedure (1)]
Near the line 86 in the startup file “S610431SW.asm”

;; <---- to here
[WDT clear procedure (2)]
Near the line 167 in “main.c” (in main_clrWDT function)
void main_clrWDT( void )
{
do {
/* <---- from here */
WDTCON = (unsigned char)0x5Au;
} while (WDP != 1);
WDTCON = (unsigned char)0xA5u;
/* <---- to here */
}

5.2.
Build
It is necessary to set the operation condition of the sample program by modifying the macro definition. To modify the
macro definition, follow the procedure below on IDEU8.
1 After loading the project file of the sample program (U8_Lcd_Sample.PID), select the menu
“Project” -> “Options” -> “Compiler/assembler” -> “Macro” tab.
2 After selecting “LCD_TYPE” in the list of macro, enter the value corresponding to the type of LCD
in the “Macro text” field and press “Apply”. The value that can be entered is as follows.
If the type of LCD is 1, enter 0.
If the type of LCD is 2, enter 1.
If the type of LCD is 3, enter 2.
3 Enter “__DEBUG_SIMULATOR_AUTO__” in the “Macro” field. And press “Add” button.
4 Next, enter “__DEBUG_TIMING_EARLY__” in the “Macro” field. And press “Add” button.
* If these macros have already been registered, the procedure 34 are not needed.
Note: in the macro 34, there are two ‘_’ characters at the head and tail. But the number of ‘_’ characters
between other characters is 1.
5 Press “OK” button.
6 Select the menu “Project” -> “Rebuild”.
