Open barisdinc opened this issue 7 years ago • 7 comments

I tried to use KS08 graphic LCD with openLCD library... I added some features, now it works as it was with 2 line lcd.. But I will ad graphics capabilities, angles drawing etc. I would like to commit my changes to your repository for everybody to use.. I can provide some drawings and pinouts of how I connected everything....

Hi,

I finally finished the 64x128KS108 graphic LCD and 4x3 Keypad support.. These are the functions developed, I will be happy to see these features in your project :

  • Graphic LCD support (with many font selections)
  • 8 rows and 21 columns
  • Big Clock and Azimuth/Elevation option
  • numeric keypad entry for manual, elevation or Azimuth degree input

P.S.1 : I will share a video on youtube to show new functions... P.S.2 : I am not sure that I did a PULL request correctly.. But you can see changes in my fork http://www.github.com/barisdinc/k3ng_rotator_controller

Hi Baris, Did you manage to complete the video for youtube ? I'm very interested in adding a 128X64 display to my rotor controller. I'd really like to see how yours worked out. Terry

Baris, I have not had an opportunity yet to integrate this code. My apologies. Unfortunately I'm going to have to manually merge the code. (If there is a way you could tag lines you have changed and added and send me the files, that would help.)

I've tried this last night. it works ok, but I can't locate where you've placed the switch for large az/el displayed. Can you point me to it? I've been trying to accomplish something similar, for the same display type, but using the U8Glib, so I couldn't easily port that to K3NG's code concept, as the U8glib is used in a different way, so there would be many changes required. I ended up creating a super basic az indication only code, without any of the sophistication K3NG had included in his, as that would take me ages to complete.., and I was just about to give up and leave mine as-is, then I've run onto this, quite accidentally. I haven't considered the Openglcd before, as Arduino says not to use it (I don't even know the reasons...). That's how I ended up with U8glib... And got stuck with it, even though it works good for the display type, and someone made an effort of getting most out of it. But I believe similar will be possible with this one, too..
