Whenever a Vector Memory location has
been either written into or read from by the
user processor, the User Address Pointer
auto-increments to the next Vector Memory
location (address).
3-4. HANDSHAKE TIMING FOR 1349D.
The TTL digital interface to the Vector Memory (1349D)
is compatible with most microprocessor peripheral
interface adaptor chips (the Motorola
Vector Memory digital interface consists of:
1. A 16-bit bidirectional Data Bus.
2. A Read Signal line LRD (input).
3. A Write signal line LWR (input).
4. A Device Select signal line
5. An Acknowledge signal line LXACK (output).
6. An External display Synchronization signal line
SYNC (input use is optional).
Each time that the picture is redrawn by the 1349D, the
display is refreshed. This prevents the phosphor light
output from expiring. The refresh sync signal may be
provided by either the internal refresh circuit, or an
external source. To select the required mode of operation
for refresh mode, set the

with the interfering signal can stabilize the picture.
3-6. REFRESH MODES FOR 1349D.
The Vector Memory sends its data to the Vector
Processor (VPC) each time the picture is to be drawn on
screen. Data is send to the VPC either via synchronous
mode or free running mode.
SYNCHRONOUS MODE.
Vector Memory waits until a synchronizing pulseoccurs
before it will begin its next data output cycle to the
1349A/D. Synchronous refresh mode is entered when
the Refresh Pointer equals 8191. After sending the
contents of address 8191 to the VPC, the Vector Memory
waits for the next sync pulse before starting a new
refresh cycle at address
Pictures A and B will be displayed atan even brightness
FREE RUNNING MODE. Free Running mode is when
the picture cannot be drawn in the time interval between
sync pulses. The memory circuit automatically enters
this mode whenever a sync edge arrives before the
refresh counter reaches its highest address (8191). In
this mode, the memory will not wait for a sync edge
when it finishes the picture, but will immediately start
drawing the picture again.
This sync override feature allows all simple pictures to
be displayed at an even brightness (say 60 Hertzrefresh
rate), and complex pictures to be displayed at a level of
brightness that depends only on the time it takes to draw
the picture on the display.

The Vector Memory can be tested by the user processor
as part of power-on self test routine. For example, first
write all zeros to all words. Then "chase a one" through
memory to check each cell. Also, the User Address

When the Vector Memory is powered up, its contents are endpoints in 2048 by 2048 cartesian coordinate system.
in an unknown random state. There are several methods The origin
of memory initialization.
One method is to fill the entire memory with ''jump to
8191" instructions. The benefit of using this method of
initialization is that as the user fills the Vector Memorv
with picture information, the Vector Memory will
always "jump to 8191" after drawing the picture, no
matter how many words are used to form the picture.
This ensures that the picture will be displayed at the
optimum refresh rate.
Another way of initializing the Vector Memory is to
write all zeros to all words. This data will be sent to the
1349D, but will draw nothing on screen (effectively a noop). Each "no-op" will take about one microsecond, thus
8000 "no-ops" (8000 words in Vector Memory) will use up
to 8 milliseconds of display time, producing a dimmer
picture if in the free running mode.

When the line type "solid line with intensified endpoints"
is selected, the intensity of the endpoints may vary due
to optical illusion. As lines are linked together the
intensity of the point where one line ends and the next
line starts is a function of the angle separating the lines.
The closer the angle is to 180 degrees, the brighter the
point. The closer the angle is to zero degrees (absolute),
the dimmer the point.

necessary to produce the character specified.
The

When the display is refreshed, this data is sent from the
Memory Board to the VPC for
vectodcharacter
generation. If internal sync mode is selected, display
refresh is accomplished without attention from the user
processor once the picture has been loaded into Vector
Memory. The write operation is controlled by the
handshake sequence as presented in figure 3-2.
INTERNAL JUMPWORD. When M15 is high and M14
is low, then data bits M12 through MO designate the
address of the next word in Vector Memory that will be
sent to the VPC. This allows the Memory to skip blocks
of picture data on each pass through its address range
when it is refreshing the display. Certain data in
Memory is effectively suppressed until the user
processor wants that data to be displayed. Refer to
paragraph 3-14 for an example of using the Jump
Instruction. When needed, a suppressed block of data
can be added to the picture by changing only the Vector
Memory Word that contains the internal jump code. An
internal jump does not affect the User Pointer Address.
are both high, then data bits M12 through MO designate
the address to which the User Address Pointer will
move. The value in the pointer register specifies the next
address in Vector Memory that will be written into (or
read from) by the user processor. The pointer increments
to the next Vector Memory address after each read or
write operation commanded by the user processor.

DON'T
CARE
Set pointer register to the Vector Memory address value
specified by All through AO.
NOTE
The address is placed in the User Address
Pointer, not the Vector Memory.
The Internal Jump instruction resides in the Vector
Memory. When it is encountered in the course of
refreshing the
1349A/D it is not sent to the VPC.
Instead, it causes the Vector Memory to do an absolute
jump to a new location. The Vector Memory then
resumes sending data to the VPC. This allows the user to
store pictures in the Vector Memory but not display
them until ready (by jumping past them). See the
example below.

3-12. READ OPERATION.
The Address Pointer value specifies the word to be read
from Vector Memory. The pointer increments with each
Write or Read operation to the Vector Memory.
Positioning of the Address Pointer to a specific location
can also be accomplished via a write operation and the
pointer instruction. This allows a selected word to be
read from Vector Memory. The read operation is
controlled by the handshake sequence as presented in
figure 3-1.

By putting jump instructions around each block of
data, it allows the user to turn parts of the complete
picture on or off by writing only one or two words to the
Vector Memory. Picture A might be used as a standard
to compare against picture B which is being updated in
real time. For this application, picture A can be turned
on whenever it is needed by changing the contents of

3-15. OPTIMIZING PlCTLlRE QUALITY
Due to differing conditions of ambient light when the
1349A/D is displaying pictures, the programmer may
have to experiment with the Intensity and Writing
Speed parameters of the Set Condition command.
For example, in an environment of high ambient light,
the
1349A/D should be set to the highest brightness
level and slowest writing speed.
