PT2 Shutter Display Trace

This note collects the current ROM evidence for the shutter seven-segment display and related selector traffic.

Confirmed Bench Mapping

The real panel responds to primary selector 0x008F:

Command 0 write Meaning candidate Observed panel result
00 01 0F 08 00 5C E000[0x008F].11 SHUTTER shows observed EUS, likely manual EVS; iris AUTO lamp on
00 01 0F 10 00 44 E000[0x008F].12 SHUTTER shows literal OFF; iris AUTO lamp on
00 01 0F 18 00 4C bits 11 and 12 likely EVS wins over OFF; iris AUTO lamp on
00 01 0F 00 00 54 clear candidate not yet bench-confirmed

Manual correlation:

  • The RCP-TX7 manual has OTHERS (1/6: SHUTTER) with an EVS button.
  • The RCP-TX7 menu table lists EVS/ECS under OTHERS for DXC-D30/D30P.
  • A later CCU/RCP manual says the shutter display shows EVS when EVS is on and OFF when the shutter switch is off.

So 0x008F.11 is currently best labeled shutter_evs_display_or_mode, and 0x008F.12 is best labeled shutter_off_display_or_mode.

Selector 0x008F ROM Path

Primary table address:

selector 0x008F -> E000 + 2 * 0x008F = H'E11E

The OTHERS/SHUTTER menu handler is H'6EE4.

Important instructions:

6F6E: BTST.W #11, @H'E11E
6F74: BSET.B #6, R0
6F76: BTST.W #12, @H'E11E
6F7C: BSET.B #4, R0
6F7E: MOV:G.B R0, @H'F711

This is the direct consumer seen so far. The current decompile does not show another static read of H'E11E outside this handler.

H'6EE4 also programs local descriptor RAM before this:

6EFD: F73E = H'088F
6F09: F74E = H'0800
6F0F: F742 = H'088F
6F1B: F752 = H'1000

Those descriptors match selector 0x008F plus the two observed masks 0x0800 and 0x1000, so the generic panel-output updater also appears to know about the same selector.

Local Panel Trigger Path

H'6EE4 can also generate a selector 0x008F report/update from local OTHERS/SHUTTER controls:

6F26: read F770 local action byte
6F2E: keep low two action bits
6F37: if action bit path and E400[0x008F].11 is enabled, set E800[0x008F] = 0x0800
6F45: if alternate action path and E400[0x008F].12 is enabled, set E800[0x008F] = 0x1000
6F53: R3 = 0x008F
6F64: call 3E54 report/target-frame builder

Practical meaning:

  • The CCU can force the display state by writing E000[0x008F].
  • The RCP can also try to report local EVS/OFF changes through selector 0x008F, but only when the secondary-table feature bits E400[0x008F].11/.12 allow it.

Adjacent Shutter Value Family

The periodic/control-change scanner at H'15E0 processes changed input words collected by IRQ3 from the external panel chips. Around the shutter path it calls H'19A2, which compares a local delta against the current primary table value and, if changed, writes the E800 current table and calls H'3E54.

Candidate selectors:

Handler Source RAM Gate Selector sent Meaning candidate
H'17C9 F6AE/F6CE E000[0x0093].12 0x00A3 clear-scan/shutter value lane
H'17FB F6AC/F6CC E000[0x0093].12 0x00A4 clear-scan/shutter value lane
H'182D F6AA/F6CA E000[0x0093].5, F717.2 clear 0x00A5 shutter value lane
H'182D F6AA/F6CA F717.2 set 0x00D8 alternate/DXC-637 shutter lane
H'1891 F6A8/F6C8 E000[0x0093].5, F717.2 clear 0x0080 shutter value lane
H'1891 F6A8/F6C8 F717.2 set 0x00D9 alternate/DXC-637 shutter lane
H'18E7 F6A6/F6C6 E000[0x0093].5, F717.2 clear 0x00A6 shutter value lane
H'18E7 F6A6/F6C6 F717.2 set 0x00DA alternate/DXC-637 shutter lane
H'194A F6A4/F6C4 F731 <= 3 0x0080 shared value lane
H'1979 F6A2/F6C2 plus F68C scale F731 <= 3 0x0081 scaled analog value lane

This cluster is a strong candidate for the numeric shutter speed / clear-scan frequency side of the display. It is not yet bench-confirmed.

Potential display probes after CONNECT: OK:

00 01 0F 00 00 54  ; clear selector 0x008F
00 01 13 80 00 C8  ; set 0x0093 high bit candidate
00 01 13 FF FF 48  ; enable all 0x0093 gates candidate

Use the value-lane selectors cautiously. They may represent shutter/clear-scan numeric values, but they are also part of the local control-report path, so bench probing should change one selector at a time and record LCD, shutter display, iris AUTO, and emitted report frames.
