This is a very fast simple example getting an Arduino Uno displaying on a Matrix Orbital I2C Display.
Connect an Arduino UNO to a Matrix Orbital I2C Display:
- Connect PIN 5V to PIN 1 VIN
- Connect PIN 4 to PIN 2 SCL
- Connect PIN 5 to PIN 3 SDA
- Connect PIN GND to PIN 4 GND
On power up, you should see "Matrix Orbital" on the display
The blocks for this program are:
- Arduino Configuration
- Display Configuration
- Start of the program
- Main Loop of the program
What you will see on the screen on start:
Line 1: Hello World!
Line 2: The ASCII/FONT table of the display starting at 0x30 which is ASCII “0” to 0xFC
