4 LED Matrix Backpack - Serial Interface - Red/Green/Blue (http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=760)
I need to connect 4 matrix leds to make it look like a 16x16, but in the example i'm gonna try to run 2 matrix.
The code i've attached has the timings established by the datasheet, it is possible than some 'times' are bigger for avoid problems. the code follows this pattern.
Necesito conectar 4 matrix led para apentar 16x16, pero en el ejemplo intentaré hacer funcionar 2 matrix
EL código que adjunto cumple con los tiempos establecidos por el datasheet, algunos tiempos puede que sean más grandes para no tener problamas, el codigo sigue este patrón.
CHIPSELECT LOW
500ms
Send 64 bytes
CHIPSELECT ON
500 ms
10 ms
CHIPSELECT LOW
500ms
Send 64 bytes
CHIPSELECT ON
500 ms
To work properly the screens, I will send via SPI "% 2" to indicate that there are 2 matrix
Para que funcionen correctamente las pantallas enviaré vía SPI "%2" para indicar que existen 2 matrix
// Simple program to test using the Arduino with the RGB Matrix
// & Backpack from Sparkfun. Code is a combination of Heather Dewey-Hagborg,
// Arduino Forum user: Little-Scale, and // Daniel Hirschmann. Enjoy!
//
// The Backpack requires 125Khz SPI, which is the slowest rate
// at which the Arduino's hardware SPI bus can communicate at.
//
// We need to send SPI to the backpack in the following steps:
// 1) Activate ChipSelect;
// 2) Wait 500microseconds;
// 3) Transfer 64bytes @ 125KHz (1 byte for each RGB LED in the matrix);
// 4) De-activate ChipSelect;
// 5) Wait 500microseconds

3: CPOL - data clock idle when high if 1, idle when low if 0
2: CPHA - data on falling edge of clock when high, rising edge when low
1: SPR1 - set speed of SPI bus
0: SPR0 - set speed of SPI bus (00 is fastest @ 4MHz, 11 is slowest @ 250KHz)

When you connect plug arduino in, the first upload the code and the screens often works 90% of the time, but the problem is when you push the resset button then the screens, then the screens are in a wrong state and from this moment LEDs do not work properly.
El problema:
Cuando conectas arduino al corriente electrico, la primera carga del codigo i de las pantallas suele funcionar un 90% de las veces pero el problema surge cuando pulsas el botón de reset del arduino, entonces las pantallas están en un estado erroneo y apartir de aquí los leds no se encienden correctamente:
Does anyone have a solution? this is for project university, thanks.
