RepPanel - A DIY alternative to the PanelDue with WiFi support

oliof

Sorry, I am too dense. The pin numbers in the lvgl readme -- are those the one on the TFT, or the one on the ESP32? I constantly seem to take one list for the other and have so far not been able to tell them apart reliably enough to avoid cabling errors it seems.

@oliof The LVGL docs only specify ESP32 pins. You need to find their counterpart on your TFT

oliof

I found the counter parts in the official buydisplay documentation. I know they're right for the TFT part because that lights up with your precompiled binary. Can you maybe share your sdkconfig from the RepPanel_ESP32 directory that you used when building the current latest binary?

@seeul8er I finally had another go with this and have made some progress. I bought a new capacitive screen from buydisplay. Unfortunately I didn't realise it wasn't 3.3v version to start with but it was easy enough to short the JP bridge. I finally managed to get the reppanel to light up. The touch screen seems to work and I managed to find my router. However the one issue I have left is that I am unable to bring up the keyboard from the top right hand corner to change the password. Do you have any idea why this might happen. All the other Icons seem to open OK.

@PCR Any news on the PCB front ?

PCR

Still waiting for a display ;(

PCR

Orderd again. PCB will follow!

@PCR When the PCB is done... sign me up for one! I love the idea of the RepPanel, but have limited skills and time to implement... so the more plug and play the better

PCR

Plan is to put a prototype into production next week! Who would be in?

seeul8er

@pd Try to scroll down for the keyboard. It is hidden on the lower part of the page

appjaws

@PCR yes please

I_Jedi

@PCR I'm in assuming it isn't stupid expensive -- Could I have more details on intended cost and functionality... is this an 'all in one kit'? DIY?

PCR

Would be a pcb only. But you would need a esp and the Display! But would be easy to assemble!

I_Jedi

@PCR why not... I'll give it a go. Looking forward to it! So I should go ahead and order the board and display? Any parameters/features I should be looking for? i assume any ESP devboard should work... but what about the screen?

@PCR I'm in - Subject to costs (+Shipping)

oliof

@PCR yes please.

@seeul8er Thanks. I have now managed to connect the Reppanel to my router and it has been given an ip address. However I seem to be unable to connect to the duet. Further more after several tries at typing in the duet ip address the esp32 seem to go into a loop. I am unable to delete the data I've entered. I have tried reflashing the ESP32 but altho the flashing seems to work the old data persists. Is there anyway to delete the existing data?

seeul8er

@pd Strange crash. You can delete flash by calling idf.py -p PORT erase_flash

pd

@seeul8er Yes I have tried this but I get a fatal error ESP32 ROM does not support function erase_flash. I am using a ESP32 devkitc v4. Where do you store these parameters?
