I wanted to connect a epaper display to my rasberry pi model 4, I got a 7.5 inch model (640x384px) 1 bit color with a epaper driver hat rev 2.3. I did the installation of epaper setup but still got nothing printed out into the display using python script.
I tried all the the edp_7## script to get the right one.
I also did some simpliest code to try to decipher any error :
import logging
from waveshare_epd import epd7in5
import time
from PIL import Image,ImageDraw,ImageFont
import traceback
print("1")
epd = epd7in5.EPD()
print("2")
epd.init()
print("3")
epd.Clear()
print("4")
Himage = Image.new('1', (640, 384), 255) # 255: clear the frame
epd.display(epd.getbuffer(Himage))
print("5")
time.sleep(2)
It prints out :
>> 1
2
3
4
5
It shows any error, any warning, the driverhat is directly connected to the rasberry pi.
Yes, you are writing to the console and not writing anything to the e-Paper.
Yust have a look at the examples in e-Paper/RaspberryPi_JetsonNano//examples/epd_7in.
