perfect congratulations advance !!!!

Just do not understand why it is not tft library included in the official libraries Firewing??

Ideal would also be more detailed description of how the library to add additional drivers TFT displays.

How can we integrate the library controller touch display Controller's??


Finally, congratulations again this library Firewing pushes back a bit further.


Thank you

It is! Check out the BETA compiler release...

That would be a good article, I agree.

A Article to show how to add other drivers is a good idea and one I have thought about, just need some more time to get around to making one.

I do have a module for the Touch Screen for the Itead TFT but it is still in progress, like before I need some time to finish it.


BTW I do have another type of Shield and TFT display that I would also like to try with the Firewing Library

Do keep us informed of progress...

That looks like a much bigger screen - how big is it? Do you think it will be easy to hook up to Firewing?

<That looks like a much bigger screen - how big is it?

It is indeed a bigger screen David, 3.2" TFT, same resolution 320x240 and got it from SainSmart.com

<Do you think it will be easy to hook up to Firewing?

I think the screen would be easy to hook up to firewing with a module Driver SSD1289, not so sure that the IteadStudio Arduino ITDB02 shield adapter for TFT Displays will work without another module/driver. I will update when I have some more information

Ive just posted on the wiki the Touch Screen module, you can find it here TFT Touch it includes a simple calibration programme and you will need to download the ComicSansMS.zip Font file as well which I used to make the calibration programme.

Code: Select all

' disable UART1 on pins D0 and D1...
sub OnStartup() Handles PIC.OnStartup
   RPINR18 = RPINR18 and &HFFE0
   RPOR2 = RPOR2 and &HE0FF   
end sub


If you want to disable the input mapping shouldn't you be ORing RPINR18 with $H1F (input tied to VSS)?
Otherwise, U1RX is being assigned to RP0.

Hi Jerry

That's my fault. You are correct, to place the register back to it's reset state it needs to be %11111. So an OR is indeed required. RPOR2 reset state requires 0, so the AND is OK. I'll update the sample files to reflect this - thanks for pointing it out...

Thanks Jerry
