I guess that the protocol Digimatic is just for Mitutoyo digital calipers. And the rest of the calipers are Chinese-BCD and Chinese-Binary? Mine are defenitely chinese ones. Which protocol was the 28X2-SynchronousRx.txt in post #2? If I had a schematic how to connect it, I could try the code on...

The arduino thread was mainly for the circuit and data plug cable solution. I can't program C+. I think I will use a 3 pins molex soldered to the pcb instead of a 3Dprinted plug with wire and glue that will eventually make a bad connection. (Have not figured out how to seal the plug to prevent...

Hi Technoman, It's also for calculating (x2) radius to diameter and then to display. Thanks for the link. I don't understand the interfacing circuit in the code 28X2-SynchronousRx.txt? Where is the 3pins digital caliper data plug connected to the picaxe?

Hi, I did a thread on a laser distance sensor TOF10120 but expected higher resolutions. On my lathe, milling machine and drillling machine I've all kinds of fernier caliphers. Some are already on a DRO, but the others I have to read of a tiny lcd display often covered with cutting fluid, dust...

I ordered the two (128x32, 128x64) SSD1306 displays with 4 pins for I2C. I'll wait for it to arrive and test all presented picaxe code both chars and graph. I will let you know in time, thanks for the great help so far... @stan74 I will certainly try/compare it also with all presented gcb code!

That makes sense! Then these 3 questions in my post #7 are answered. These types of larger(not SSD1306) GLCD displays(except for the LED042) are not picaxe supported yet. One question remains in my post #1 and #7... Is it sufficient to change the code only dirsB? dirsB = %00001111 to dirsB =...

https://picaxeforum.co.uk/threads/tof10120-laser-range-sensor-module.32191/post-335575 You where right that the displays look alike but carefull inspecting the china sites for crappy datasheets pages and often not mentioning the chip type SSD1306. If we focus on the SSD1306 and disgard the...

@Flenser, I changed the link in my first post to @marks his 20X2 LCD driver code . If I understand correctly I don't need an external interpreter for my display to work just for now with only characters the on-board interpreter chips should be activated by pulling them all three LOW. In my post...

@stan74, thanks for the video's Impressive! Just to save time I also want to order the 128x64 SSD1306 display too with pins for I2C. Just to be sure... is this the correct one?

Aah, yes that makes sense. I will retrieve the project and put it to the test. a) "display messages and image " are indeed seperate commands sets. b) Correct about the GLIC-K LCD interpreter chip. But I also wanted to know if a slave interpreter chip was available/possible to drive this/these...

Thanks, a) So these kind of displays(GLCD) is not part driven as characters and other part driven as graphics? b) Is there a interpreter chip available/possible to drive this/these display(s) by a picaxe? c) Is the picaxe LED042 then the only GLCD picaxe supported display? I have a LED042 but...

In post #1, on the left I mentioned the LCD connections and on the right 20X2 driver. Pin ("leg") 16 of the LCD display is "Active" Low for Reset. Sorry, maybe a table would have been more clear. 20x4 LCD display 20X2 driver pins1-6 Vss,Vdd,Vo,RS,RW,E pins11-16 DB4-7 LED+ LED_A...

@AllyCat You surprise me! Thought I made no sense. Perhaps for the SSD1306 a driver can be made like the 20X2 LCD driver code from @marks where the user(also kids) can quickly implement a small display and start from scratch programming only the master controller over serial and/or I2C. Maybe...

@stan74, thanks for all "other basic" code and info that I really appriciate! * This because about a year ago while surfing china webshops I found the nextion display types too and more but did not dare to try! Instead I went for another(white 20pins) large 20x4 display then my previous(blue...

Hi, I want a large 20x4 LCD display for projects where at a distance(1,2m) it should be readable. This time I went for another(white 20pins) large 20x4 display then my previous(blue 16pins) medium 20x4 display mentioned in one of my threads. I've been testing how to drive it also with @marks...

I'm not the smartest of the class, sorry for asking but to replicate your finished project I could really use a schematic of minimum connections. Also for replicating the "multiple Font" circuit.

Things are getting more clear with every post of your help, thanks.o_O To put all info sofar in perspective(please correct me if I'm wrong)... * Didn't now the diversity of SSD1306 displays! I thought that sda+scl always means I2C in their communications. So I will order a new 4pins display. *...

After carefully studying the 08M2 code for SSD1306 I found... symbol EPROMSAD = $A0 ; Slave ADdress symbol OLEDSAD = $78 ; Slave ADdress * That's an external EPROM, what kind and type? * Could my 7pin-header SSD1306 display with extra Res, DC, CS have another address? *...

@stan74, AllyCat(Alan) is correct, check out post #20 is the code you need. 🤓 Yep, I know I should have used me glasses to see that, error solved. However, doesn't show anything on the display, it's totally dark?
