This example demonstrates using a keyboard and mouse plugged into Dock, as well as reading and writing with APF Target commands. By default, the core boots into a gray screen with a mouse cursor. The framebuffer can be drawn on either by using the mouse or keyboard. In the bottom right of the screen are spaces for 4 small colored boxes indicating the connection status of the 4 controller slots.
On mouse, the controls are
- LMB: Draw
On keyboard, the controls are
- Arrow keys: Move cursor
- Left CTRL: Draw
On controller 1:
- A/B/X/Y buttons: Reload the framebuffer with 1 out of 4 images read using APF Target commands.
- Select button: Save the franebuffer to slot ID 0x22. The asset file "saved.bin" will be created or overwritten.
- Start button: Load the franebuffer from slot ID 0x22, corresponding to asset file "saved.bin".
Features demonstrated:
- SDRAM controller
- Video generation
- Dock mouse/keyboard
