The LP5814I has 5 dedicated software commands, Shutdown_command, Reset_command,
Update_command, Start_command and Stop_command. Besides the 5 software commands,
there is another PAUSE_CONTINUE bit used to control the execution of the
autonomous animation.
- Send Shutdown_command is one of the 2
methods to make the device enter SHUTDOWN mode as described in Shutdown Mode. In INSTANT BLINKING mode, the LP5814I doesn't respond to
the Shutdown_command.
- Send Reset_command to reset all registers
to default value. In INSTANT BLINKING mode, the LP5814I doesn't respond
to the Reset_command.
- Send Update_command to make the modified
value in the device configuration registers as shown in Table 7-6 to take effect. The LP5814I responds to the Update_command only when
CHIP_EN = 1 and not in INSTANT BLINKING mode.
- Send Start_command to start running the
configured autonomous animation patterns on the outputs. The LP5814I
responds to the Start_command only when CHIP_EN = 1 and not in INSTANT
BLINKING mode.
- Send Stop_command to stop running the
configured autonomous animation patterns on the outputs. The LP5814I responds to the Stop_command only when CHIP_EN =
1 and not in INSTANT BLINKING mode.
- Set PAUSE_CONTINUE bit as 1 to pause the
running of the configured autonomous animation patterns on the outputs.
Clear PAUSE_CONTINUE bit as 0 to continue the running of the previous
paused autonomous animation patterns on the outputs. When the PAUSE_CONTINUE
= 1, the configured autonomous animation pattern is not started after
Start_command is sent.
