New build.

[Christopher Kindig]

OK so at this point I am stumped, I have tried every different way of inserting the code I have tried different codes with shield without shield on a Mega board with the shield and nothing but a white screen.

Hi!

Using the code below try:

1º Check if have ~ 4.5 V on pins 3 - 7, 22 - 41 and 50 - 53;

2º Check if have ~ 3.3 V in all pins else to GND and NC on connector 2 x 20.

Code: Select all

void setup()
{
  for(int i = 3; i < 8; i++)
  {
    pinMode(i, OUTPUT);
    digitalWrite(i, HIGH);
  }
  for(int i = 22; i < 42; i++)
  {
    pinMode(i, OUTPUT);
    digitalWrite(i, HIGH);
  }
  for(int i = 50; i < 54; i++)
  {
    pinMode(i, OUTPUT);
    digitalWrite(i, HIGH);
  }
}

void loop()
{
}


Best regards.

Ok so I got the screen to work with the new UTFT code, just waiting on my parts for set up.

Hi Fernando
Thank you for the help the screen is working now, not shure what I did but it's working, touch is another story though . The calibration code will not work without the shield, button test doesn't work at all. I will keep trying different codes till I find one that works I don't wantbe a bother to you as know you are busy, thanks again for the help and best wishes.

Hi!

Change:

Code: Select all

UTouch      myTouch(6,5,4,3,2);

To:

Code: Select all

UTouch      myTouch(7,6,5,4,3);

What happens with your posts?

Best regards.

[Christopher Kindig]

Ok I will try that. After I wake up this afternoon, I work over nights thats why my posts are so far apart.

[Fernando Garcia]

But why are duplicated?

[Christopher Kindig]

Not sure why they are double post on some maybe because they were edited, any how I tried to load Ferduino code and had some errors come up.

[Fernando Garcia]

In .../libraries/UTFT delete the file "DefaultFonts.c"

In .../Ferduino_English/bibliotecas/UTFT copy the files "BigFont.c", "RusFont1.c", "SmallFont.c", " SevenSegNumFont.c", "SevenSegmentFull.c" and "SevenSegNumFontPlus.c" paste in .../libraries/UTFT.

Hi!

I found that right after I sent the post.

[Christopher Kindig]

Hi Fernando,

some where in you talks you had mentioned changing some settings to make touch work with different settings so touch will work do you know what post it was in, all I can remember is a setting changed to -399

[Christopher Kindig]

Still no luck with calibration of touch screen.

[Fernando Garcia]

Hi!

I'm sorry but, can't help you because I haven't a TFT 4.3".

Best regards.

[Christopher Kindig]

Hi Fernando,
Not an issue I will continue to work on it I am getting close to a solution once I get it figured out I will post code so that others who want to use can.

Ok so I got some time and I have got the touch screen to on calibration but once I load ferduino it doesn't work again. I have checked to make sure settings are right uncomment 7, 6, 5, 4, 3 and on the home screen it goes to password screen when touched but can't enter password like touch quit working again . I have gone through the code and don't see anything strange.

[Fernando Garcia]

Hi!

You saw this topic?

Have you changed:

Code: Select all

const byte ChipSelect_SD = 4;


to:

Code: Select all

const byte ChipSelect_SD = 5;


?

Best regards.

[Christopher Kindig]

That worked perfectly sir, you are the man. Thank you very much.

[Christopher Kindig]

Hi Fernando.
Which 2 wires do you use for the temp probes and also I will be working on code for 16 relay control any advice.

[Fernando Garcia]

Hi!

Look this.

Best regards.

[Christopher Kindig]

well something bad just happened, no communication with the board it times out every time

avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_getsync(): timeout communicating with programmer

I was connecting 16 relay board when the problem occurred to Relays-2 connector.
