Emulator and GUI for my Hanover Flipdot Display driver
git clone https://github.com/tuna-f1sh/flippy-flipdot-web
cd flippy-flipdot-web
npm install
node app.js --help
node app.js --emulate
# Alternatively
npm run emulate
Pre-append DEBUG=flipdot*,ascii*
to run commands, eg:
DEBUG=flipdot*,ascii* node app.js -p /dev/ttyUSB0 -r 7 -c 56
- See the node module for issues: https://github.com/tuna-f1sh/node-flipdot
- The display address must be correct for display attempting to be drive (default 0x05 is arbitary and should match internal pot position).
- The display rows and columns should be correct for display attempting to drive.
- Set the correct RS485 USB device port with
--port
Whilst I have designed the code to theoretically scale to any display, it has not been hardware tested (I only have a 56x7). The flipdot-display might need some tweaking - PRs welcome!
