BOOSTXL-SHARP128 with MSP-EXP430FR5969

[Kris2475 0]

Hi All,

I've been trying to get my BOOSTXL-SHARP128 to work. I've done loads of searches, but I can't find a solution. Does anyone know how to get the module to display a simple "Hello!" type message using Energia?

Please see my code - below.

It just seems to display lots of lines and dots. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi,

 

I've tried this also, but I get the following error message:

I'm going to assume you want to actually learn, and not just be handed "the answer."  Take a look at this on stackoverflow, it should help you figure out a solution your problem.

I also am trying LCD_SharpBoosterPack_SPI.cppSharp128 booster pack errorssharp128.inoLCD_SharpBoosterPack_SPI.hw/o succss to use the Sharp128 LCD.  Had no problem with the Sharp96 LCD, but that is no longer available.  Just want to do the same thing with the Sharp128

I am a novice 81 year old, not likely to become an expert any time soon.

Any help would be appreciated.

You're lucky, you're using a library which is fully documented, so RTFM (link)!

Otherwise, just have a look at the header file. 

    ///
    /// @brief	Constructor
    /// @note   For Sharp Memory LCD BoosterPack
    /// @param  model default=SHARP_96 for compatibility, SHARP_128
    /// @code
    ///     LCD_SharpBoosterPack_SPI myScreen(SHARP_96);
    /// @endcode
    ///
    LCD_SharpBoosterPack_SPI(uint8_t model = SHARP_96);

Are you specifying which screen you want to use?

Are you using the lastest version of Energia or have you patched this lib into an older one?

Your references to the lib files confuses me a little bit.
