hey, I am complelty confuzzled, I am trying to recieve a bluetooth string from my iphone with hm10 module, connected to oled screen and nano arduino. I have the following code:
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Wire.h>
#include <Adafruit_GFX.h>
#include <Adafruit_SSD1306.h>
#define SCREEN_WIDTH 128 // OLED display width, in pixels
#define SCREEN_HEIGHT 64 // OLED display height, in pixels
// Declaration for an SSD1306 display connected to I2C (SDA, SCL pins)
// The pins for I2C are defined by the Wire-library.
// On an arduino UNO: A4(SDA), A5(SCL)
// On an arduino MEGA 2560: 20(SDA), 21(SCL)
// On an arduino LEONARDO: 2(SDA), 3(SCL), ...
#define OLED_RESET -1 // Reset pin # (or -1 if sharing Arduino reset pin)
#define SCREEN_ADDRESS 0x3C ///< See datasheet for Address; 0x3D for 128x64, 0x3C for 128x32
Adafruit_SSD1306 display(SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT, &Wire, OLED_RESET);
SoftwareSerial mySerial(2,3);
String readString = "";
char c;
void setup()
{
if(!display.begin(SSD1306_SWITCHCAPVCC, SCREEN_ADDRESS)) {
Serial.println(F("SSD1306 allocation failed"));
for(;;); // Don't proceed, loop forever
}
mySerial.begin(9600);
Serial.begin(9600);
display.clearDisplay();
display.setTextSize(2); // Normal 1:1 pixel scale
display.setTextColor(SSD1306_WHITE); // Draw white text
display.setCursor(0,10); // Start at top-left corner
display.println(F("Power on"));
display.display();
}
void loop()
{
while (Serial.available() > 0) {
Serial.println("serial on");
delay(10); //small delay to allow input buffer to fill
c = Serial.read(); //gets one byte from serial buffer
readString += c;
} //makes the string readString
if (readString.length() > 0) {
display.clearDisplay();
display.setTextColor(WHITE);
display.setTextSize(2);
display.setCursor(0, 10);
// Display static text
display.println(readString);
display.display();
readString=""; //clears variable for new input
}
}
it is supposed to make the bluetooth characters into a string then display it on the oled screen, the display is not the problem only the gathering of the characters into a string which does not work, I do not know what is wrong with the code + the wiring is good(bluetooth to d2 and d3)
whats wrong with my code? why is it not recieiving the string properly??
