Output Data to an i2c Display add rotary encoder controls #164

Open OffGridTechClub opened 1 year ago

OffGridTechClub commented 1 year ago

Hello, l recently got your implementation of OP25 running on a raspberry pi 3b+ with Raspbian Buster Lite OS and I love it !

How can I go about pulling data from the web UI (or the program itself) to show data on an i2c screen (current talk ID, etc) could these features be added to your code?

I would also love to figure out how to make a menu on the I2c display that's controlled by a push button rotary encoder to control channels, adjust volume, hold channel, etc. I've already mounted the raspberry pi, screen, and rotary encoder in a nice aluminum enclosure for a mobile scanner setup.

Thank you !

You can check out this project. Somebody did the same with an i2c OLED display: https://github.com/hdphilip/OP_25_Oled_Display

Thanks, keep me updated about your project! Maybe a V2 with more controls would be coming out

Nice ! Will do.

The one OP25 I'm working on now is small black aluminum case with a Pi 3b+ I got the ReSpeaker HAT working so it has its own speaker now. Working on the i2c screen and rotary encoder, gonna add a couple buttons too. (Just gotta figure out the coding part 😅)

I have one larger aluminum case setup with a pi-4 + PoE HAT that runs 2 NooElec SDRs + 1 1090 ADSB SDR + an ALFA WiFi dongle with monitor mode capable driver. The two NOOelecs have proper 800mhz antennas, the ADSB has a 1090 antenna, built in and and filter, the ALFA AWUS036ACS has an 8db external antenna. i2c screen soldered up and a rotary encoder mounted.

Another cool project is the WiFi walkie talkie that uses Mumble VOIP. GitHub.com/talkkonnect . I have that in a smaller case with a Pi zero with an ALFA WiFi AWUS03ACS external antenna. It can be used in a private OffGrid network, or over the internet. It can also relay HAM Radios, use MQTT, broadcast over HAM, etc.
