right now I have an Arduino Micro running an Adafruit micro SD card reader and a 32 light LPD8806 strip to test. We’re trying to make a strip work for a Poi performance and having some obstacles with the programming.

Not 100% if Michael’s code uses the pins for extra buttons, but its very easy to add if not. Just wire up the buttons to those pins, and i think it should work fine without the LCD. I had some aux buttons in a version of my code so you didn’t have to use the small ones on the display. Think that’s too big? Also, how should I format my bitmaps? Thanks!Īuthor: is0-mick (IP: 87.112.61.194, 87.112.61.194)Ĭomment: It should work fine without the LCD display. I have an 8GB high capacity card in there that I could only get to format under FAT32. I’m wondering if there is an issue with my bitmaps and SD card format since I don’t have an LCD to verify the SD works at startup. my Micro seems to accept the code fine, but nothing happens when I hit the buttons.

I had some of my buttons on those pins so I moved them over to A0-A5.Still no change.Īuthor: is0-mick (IP: 146.200.21.103, 103.21.net)Ĭomment: Just a thought, for debugging, you could always try Serial.print…., and print to the console window on the PC to see if the program is failing at any point…Īs for the format, see points 4 and 5 on the guide at the top of this page 🙂Ĭomment: Thanks for the suggestion, I’ve wired the buttons to pins 4&5, 6&7, and 8&9 and updated the code to reflect the changes. I noticed the code for the lcd screen it looked like the pins for the screen were on 8, 9, 4, 5, 6, 7. I read the formatting rules for the bitmaps and corrected those. Is there a particular baud rate I should use? I know 1200 only resets it.

Then just add statements in the code such as Serial.print(“Key pressed.”) or such 🙂Ĭomment: I tried Serial.print… on the serial monitor window and it did not write anything back. If there is no line, then add one as above. The number in brackets indicates the baud rate. Is there somewhere I can post my code for you to take a look at?Ĭomment: Have a look in the code for a line such as Serial.begin(115200) I also swapped out every time it said lcd.print to Serial.print but that didn’t produce anything either. Just pop it up on pastebin or something, and post a link.Ĭomment: Couldn’t get the Serial.print to work with this code but I can get it to work with the SD card examples Arduino provides. You should start seeing output in the window that opens. Upload the code to the arduino, then on the audrino IDE select tools. one in setupLCDdisplay() and the other in setupSDcard() It only needs to be in the setup part of the code, please delete the other two. I did notice you have serial.begin(115200) three times in the code. I’m curious if the micro can’t handle the programming A’s crashes. I compiled it under the mega and it only used 8% and 30%. At the bottom it says low memory, May cause stability issues. When it complies I’m using about 83% program storage memory and 96% for variables. I’m wondering if I’m having a lack of memory issue on the micro. I did notice the only time I can get it to print to serial is when the sd card board doesn’t have power, abd then it’ll only say “sd init fsil” the board also closes the usb connection from my computer when the sd card board powers on. Only other thing I could think that would cause something like that is perhaps the micro you are using also uses the same pins for the SD and the serial?Īuthor: Kyle P (IP: 96.248.217.241, .net)Ĭomment: Still no luck. I think there may be an issue with your SD wiring maybe? It deffo should not disconnect when it fires up the SD reader. Author: is0-mick (IP: 81.144.211.35, 81.144.211.35)Ĭomment: Not sure what micro you are using, but doesnt sound like it has enough memory etc as you said.
