B4R Question ST7735s 0.96" TFT how to change options ?

[Michael1968]

Hi,

I have a 0.96" ST7735s TFT Display
and i want to use rAdafruitST7735 library


there are 3 options:

st.InitializeHardware(5,23,18,option)
//Options: 0 = ST7735R green tab, 1 = ST7735R red tab, 2 = ST7735R black tab, 3 = ST7735B.

with this options the display did not work.

now i have find out in a Arduino example , to add option :
initR(INITR_MINI160x80); // initialize a ST7735S chip, mini display

but i could not find out how and where to do it in library.
hardcoded will be ok.

Best reagards
Michael

Post the link to that example. I'm not sure that it is related to this library.

I use this example : Arduino code
with this board https://docs.m5stack.com/#/en/core/m5stickc

I only make some changes and it work with arduino

#define TFT_RST  18
#define TFT_CS   5
#define TFT_DC   23


Adafruit_ST7735 tft = Adafruit_ST7735(TFT_CS,  TFT_DC, TFT_RST);

void setup(void) {
  Serial.begin(115200);
 
  Serial.println("Hello! ST77xx TFT Test");
 
//  if (!ss.begin()) {
//    Serial.println("seesaw init error!");
//    while(1);
//  }
//  else Serial.println("seesaw started");
//
//  ss.tftReset();
//  ss.setBacklight(0x0); //set the backlight fully on

  // Use this initializer (uncomment) if you're using a 0.96" 180x60 TFT
  tft.initR(INITR_MINI160x80);   // initialize a ST7735S chip, mini display
  Serial.print(INITR_MINI160x80);

You can see the relevant C code in rAdafruit_ST7735.cpp.

INITR_MINI160x80 = 4.

Edit the file and change:

if (Options < 3)
            st->initR(Options);
        else
            st->initB();

With:

st->initR(Options);

You should then pass 4 to InitializeHardware.
