 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |
Forum Index : Microcontroller and PC projects : 5" EastRising display

A friend bought three 5" EastRising displays: https://www.buydisplay.com/display-5-inch-tft-arduino-touch-shield-ssd1963-for-mega-due I have tested them using both supported 5" drivers on both MM+ and Webmite and they work well, apart from having the red and blue colours reversed. Normally this would not be a problem but the project uses bitmap images. The EastRising 9" displays work perfectly when plugged into the same circuits. I can hack my way past this by recreating the BMP files with the red and blue bytes swapped but thought I would check here to see if anyone has better suggestions. I appreciate any suggestions. |

It would be nice if you could use "non-Shield" version and swap the R and B pins in the connector or cable... Live in the Future. It's Just Starting Now! |

Just tried these on my ER 5" on an Armmite F4. POKE DISPLAY command used to change the colour order after the display is configured. Seems to work, should work on picomite. You may be able to put the POKE command in MM.STARTUP POKE DISPLAY &H36,&H08 Landscape POKE DISPLAY &H36,&H58 Portrait POKE DISPLAY &H36,&H38 RLandscape POKE DISPLAY &H36,&HB8 RPortrait Latest F4 Latest H7 |
