OLED Screen Control

The General Driver for Robots has an onboard IIC interface. The OLED module of SSD1306 can be connected to the driver board with IIC to achieve the effect of displaying information on the OLED screen. The OLED screen control program is provided below.

Demo

Upload Demo

Download dependency library Adafruit_SSD1306.

After downloading the zip file, open SSD1306.ino, connect the multifunctional driver board to the computer with a USB cable (here the Type-C port of the USB of the multifunctional driver board is plugged in), click "Tools" → "Ports", and then click Click "Tools" → "Ports", and then click on the newly appeared COM port.

In Arduino IDE, click "Tools" → "Development Board" → "ESP32" → "ESP32 Dev Module". Upload the demo after selecting the development board and the port. After uploading the demo, connect the IIC peripheral expansion interface to the OLED screen and WAVESHARE will be displayed on the OLED screen.
