Closed JoeBerlin69 closed 3 months ago

How do I use these adress jumpers? From top or bottom? 20240701_223643 20240701_223643

Have you managed to resolve this? I'm having a similar issue, I'm not sure how they address?

JoeBerlin69 commented 3 months ago

I am sorry. No i haven't a solution. I took some original pcbs from david. They work well. A built 10 split flaps in the past. They all work well. This was my first attempt (and really expensive) with this pcb and i hope, s.o. can help me with my problems told in my second issue.

Hey, all pins are labeled on the back of the PCB: image

The source code of @evilscientress' fork states: 

#define ADRESSSW1 6
#define ADRESSSW2 5
#define ADRESSSW3 4
#define ADRESSSW4 3

Meaning tht only the top 4 jumpers currently control the address, in that order. The other jumpers can be used for something else or for more address bits in the future.

Sorry if this is a silly question - Do I use the jumpers like this?

codingcatgirl commented 3 months ago

Those are precisely the wrong ones. You gotta use the top ones. The bottom ones are unused for now.

Like this? addressing

codingcatgirl commented 3 months ago

I'm on my way right now and can't verify it. Please just… try it out? The basic idea is right but i can't say/verify off the top of my head right now if it might be inverted or backwards.

I had the same issue. After some debugging I found that you have to uncomment this line. After uploading the new firmware it was working. On the ESPMaster board you just leave the address blank (no jumpers). Hope this helps!
