Maker LED Matrix Display Arduino Library

Description and details

This library used to control e-radionica Maker LED Matrix Display module equipped with 32x9 or 64x9 LED matrix, ESP8266 with Arduino Bootloader, two or four IS31FL3731 Charleplexed LED controllers and a lithium battery charger.

It allows user to display message on screen, scroll it, display 8x8 bitmap image, display both message with bitmap images, connect to WLAN network, open a web page and display web page content on display.

NOTE: Before using this library check if you have installed:

• Adafruit GFX Library: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-GFX-Library
• IS31FL3731 Library: https://github.com/BornaBiro/IS31FL3731

Otherwise, this library will not work and while trying to compile examples you will get a lot of errors.

Repository content

This repo contains Arduino Maker LED Matrix display library (header .h file and a .cpp file). It also contains four examples:

• Maker_LED_Matrix_32_example - This example shows how to use basic functions of Maker LED Matrix Display library like printing message on the screen, scrolling message, printing bitmap or greyscale image. This example is for 32x9 LED Matrix.
• Maker_LED_Matrix_32_web_example - This example shows how to connect to WiFi using this library, read some data of the web and display that data on LED matrix. This example is for 32x9 LED Matrix.
• Maker_LED_Matrix_64_example - This example shows how to use basic functions of Maker LED Matrix Display library like printing message on the screen, scrolling message, printing bitmap or greyscale image. This example is for 64x9 LED Matrix.
• Maker_LED_Matrix_64_web_example - This example shows how to connect to WiFi using this library, read some data of the web and display that data on LED matrix. This example is for 64x9 LED Matrix.

How to use this library

Click on green "Clone or download button", then "Download ZIP", wait while file downloads, open Arduino IDE, then Sketch-> Include Library-> Add ZIP Library and then browse to your ZIP library file that you downloaded.

After that click on File-> Examples-> Maker_LED_Matrix to use examples.

NOTE: Don't forget to change your board to Generic ESP8266 Board (Tools-> Boards). If you don't see this choice, that means you don't have installed ESP8266 Core For Arduino (can be found here).
