There is no function to turn off the OLED. ssd1306WriteCmd()
is public so you could try sendingSSD1306_DISPLAYOFF
and SSD1306_DISPLAYON
.
oled.ssd1306WriteCmd(SSD1306_DISPLAYOFF);
...
oled.ssd1306WriteCmd(SSD1306_DISPLAYON));
You can try it but I don't know if will save power or work properly.
I have developed a bit of code to avoid the OLED fading off when displaying the same text Here, I am just diming it, but you can also turn it off with the level of contrast
void setDisplayDIM()
{
display.ssd1306WriteCmd(SSD1306_SETPRECHARGE);
display.ssd1306WriteCmd(0);
display.ssd1306WriteCmd(SSD1306_SETVCOMDETECT);
display.ssd1306WriteCmd(0);
display.ssd1306WriteCmd(SSD1306_SETCONTRAST);
display.ssd1306WriteCmd(10);
}
void setDisplayNORMAL()
{
display.ssd1306WriteCmd(SSD1306_SETPRECHARGE);
display.ssd1306WriteCmd(0xF1);
display.ssd1306WriteCmd(SSD1306_SETVCOMDETECT);
display.ssd1306WriteCmd(0x20);
display.ssd1306WriteCmd(SSD1306_SETCONTRAST);
display.ssd1306WriteCmd(0xAF);
}
Hi, there is any option to turn off OLED to save power?
