tty2oled Troubleshooting

Unread post by BrainStrain »

Hi all,

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post.

I am having trouble getting anything to display on the oled
Parts used -
-3.12 256*64 SSD1322 SPI OLED Display
-ESP32-DevKitC

I followed the wiki. Only snag is the wiki doesn't mention anything about FastLED library but I installed as it is mentioned in the latest usb sketch & is required to compile. But does show this in the log when verifying -

"In file included from C:\Users\test\Desktop\tty2oled\sketch\libraries\FastLED\src/FastLED.h:75,
from C:\Users\test\Desktop\tty2oled\sketch\MiSTer_SSD1322_USB\MiSTer_SSD1322_USB.ino:163:
C:\Users\test\Desktop\tty2oled\sketch\libraries\FastLED\src/fastspi.h:157:23: note: #pragma message: No hardware SPI pins defined. All SPI access will default to bitbanged output
pragma message "No hardware SPI pins defined. All SPI access will default to bitbanged output"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

Still uploads after this message.

I did try the old monochrome version which does not use FastLED but I still do not get any display after flash.

Here is the last part of the upload log of latest usb version-

I've made an album showing how wiring is currently setup. I redid the wire setup to match the diagram wiring colours so it is easier to follow.

I have tried latest Arduino suite & 1.8.16 used the in wiki.

Maybe another perspective can see something I am failing to see.

Thank you for the support

Better to use the corresponding thread here.
Wiring is looking ok at first look. The "pragma message" when compiling yourself can be ignored...patch pending.
In your Arduino IDE you have set your board to "ESP32 Dev Module" but are using a "ESP DevKitC v4", right? Then you have to set your board to "Wemos Lolin 32".

Thank you RealLarry that was indeed the correct solution. Now working fine & can send commands with the correct response.

I had tested some example sketches that worked with board set to ESP32 Dev Module so I probably would not have found the solution myself.

I hope this helps someone in the future

Nothing to thank for - you are welcome. And some users have had this "issue" already a few times, so nothing new ;)
As always and normal: If you think you'd everything done correctly but it isn't working, you overlooked something. Even after a 2nd and 3rd revisit.

Hi,
could you please double check the following tty2oled wiki page and tell me if you miss something that needs to be documented.
