6 Individual Pictures/Text
How to bring Text/Pictures to the Display
By Simulator Software:
When you have double clicked to the startoled.exe,
immediately a demo page appears on the monitor, when a
EA 9781-2USB
the demo page appears as soon as the
right organization is chosen under the
OLED
pull down
button;
Additionally you can select under the
File
pull down
button the function Demo for other pictures/text;
By Keyboard:
Easiest way to get individual text to the displays is to click
under
File
to Power on Reset or Clear Display. A full
dot cursor appears blinking on the top left position. Now
you can type with the keyboard the text you want to show
in the display. When the line is full it writes to the next line,
when it is at the end of the last line it shifts all content 1
line higher and writes again to the last line.
Individual Pictures/Text:
If you want that the demo starts with your own text you
can change the text files in the folder StartOled
(OLEDM204_x.txt) and save it. Immediately the program
will take the new file and show your text.
If you want to show your own graphic file you should copy
it into the bitmap files in the folder StartOled
(OLEDxxx.bmp) and save it. Immediately the program will
take the new file and will show your graphic.
Also you can take a bmp- or text file with the mouse and
drop it on the display area, it will include it.
Notes:
The bmp-file must be a black and white one without gray
scales and must not be bigger than the display resolution.
Otherwise you will get an error note on the screen. Only
1pc.
