Re: Help with VK204-25 I2C communication

Hi Leonardo, It's good to see some of our older display models are still kicking around! The baud rate and I2C address on your Rev 1.22 VK204-25 can be configured by populating jumpers on the J0-J3 pins. According to section 2.1.3 in the VK204-25 Rev 1.23 classic manual, it looks like your display i...

Re: Make EVE2-29A look like a green crt display

Hi Bob, You should be able to do that. Just convert all of the wr32 RAM_DL functions to their SendCMD counterparts. See below: // Using raw uncompressed bitmap data, the CoProcessor is not needed for inflation and the data is // stored into RAM_G without the use of the FIFO / CoProcessor. // This fu...

Re: Make EVE2-29A look like a green crt display

Hi Bob, Please see the attached code. It's essentially a modified version of our EVE School code, but it draws your test image on screen. It includes 2 versions of your test screen: a jpg variant and a .raw variant. Their load times are comparable. I used Irfanview to convert your .tif image to a jp...

Re: Make EVE2-29A look like a green crt display

Hi Bob,

I finally have some good news for you! I was able to load the image off of the SD card, scale it to fit the screen, and display it on the EVE2-29A.

I'll have to clean up my code, but I'll make sure to upload it later tonight.

Cheers,
Daniel

Hi Bob,

What kind of speeds were you seeing? Was it relatively fast to update?

Cheers,

Re: Make EVE2-29A look like a green crt display

Hi Bob, I've played around with the image you've provided and I'm still having difficulties displaying it properly on the EVE. I am able to get... something. But it definitely isn't what we want. Would it be possible for you to send me a jpeg version of what you are looking to display? Cheers, Daniel

Re: Make EVE2-29A look like a green crt display

Hi Bob, I've done some testing here, and unfortunately, I wasn't able to display your image successfully in a relatively quick manner. I can display images, but they take a little bit of time to load from the SD card. I'll continue testing, but I should let you know that I'll be out of the office be...

Re: Upgrading ELK204-7T firmware

Hi Foobar, Welcome to the Forums! Yes, you are correct. The ELK204-7T-1U is based on our LK204-7T-1U display. As you have mentioned, there seem to be a few errors in the display's description. I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you. We are working to correct these errors on our websit...

Re: Boot screen with company logo?

No Worries Mascenzi. Also, just a heads up, we have a program called BootLogo that can help you design your logo. In addition, the program allows you to upload your logo along with your custom characters directly to the display from your PC. The program should make it a easier to design your custom ...

Re: Boot screen with company logo?

Hi Mascenzi, There are only 8 custom characters available on the OK204. You could try to find a way to use the same custom characters for different parts of your Logo eg. you could modify some of the custom characters used in the 'I' so that they can be reused in the 'P'. That would reduce the amoun...

Re: C++ using customer characters? OK204-25-USB

Hi Mascenzi, You should be able to send either of the following: WriteFile(my_port,"\0x00", 1, &bytes_written, NULL); or unsigned char b = 0x00; WriteFile(my_port,&b, 1, &bytes_written, NULL); No command will be needed to draw the custom character on the screen. Cheers, Daniel

Re: C++ using customer characters? OK204-25-USB

Hi mascenzi, It won't be necessary for you to save your custom characters in order to use them. Once a character is created, you can draw it on screen it by sending the assigned custom character ID to the display. I have a pseudo code example demonstrating how to use custom characters below: ClearSc...

Re: C++ OK204-25-USB writing text issue

Hi mascenci, Welcome to the forums! I've taken a look at your first photo (helloworldchar.jpg) and it looks like your string's NULL terminator (0x00) is also being sent and displayed on screen. Sending the Hello World string without the following NULL terminator should get rid of that extraneous cha...
