Help with the TM1637DISPLAY.h library

Other Hardware LEDs and Multiplexing

Hi guys, I am trying to display a number 6 my own way, but I am having trouble displaying the number and there are bugs in my code. I tried to use the display.setSegments() function but it has a bug and I don't know how to display a character. Can anybody help me. Thank you

Always show us a good schematic of your proposed circuit.
Show us a good image of your ‘actual’ wiring.
Give links to components.

In the Arduino IDE, use Ctrl T or CMD T to format your code then copy the complete sketch.

Use the </> icon from the ‘reply menu’ to attach the copied sketch.

Okay here's to the code:

#include <Arduino.h>
#include <TM1637Display.h>
int segments[4] = {0, 1, 1, 1};
TM1637Display display(2, 3);
void setup() {
display.setBrightness(7);

}

void loop() {
// Your code here
display.clear();
display.setSegments(segments);
delay(1000);
}

Tell us what this does ?

display.setSegments(segments);

Please use code tags when posting code, and ALWAYS check the library docs. You are not using the function setSegments() correctly.

Please provide a link to the library. Unfortunately, there are several dozen with the same or similar names.

This code sets the segments on the tm1637 display for example:
display.setSegements(0x05, 4, 0) This will set the segments on the tm1637 display

What does this sketch do ?

#include <TM1637Display.h>

byte segments[4] = { 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff };

//                  CLK, DIO
TM1637Display display(2, 3);


//********************************************^************************************************
void setup()
{
  display.setBrightness(7);

} //END of    setup()


//********************************************^************************************************
void loop()
{
  display.clear();
  display.setSegments(segments);
  delay(1000);

} //END of   loop()

I figured it out. Thank you everyone

Show us your sketch so others can see what was done.

Here's the sketch:

#include <Arduino.h>

#include <TM1637Display.h>

const uint64_t segments = {

SEG_A | SEG_B | SEG_D | SEG_E | SEG_G,

};

TM1637Display display(2, 3);

void setup() {

display.setBrightness(100);

}

void loop() {

// Your code here

display.clear();

display.setSegments(segments, 4, 0);

delay(10000);

}

Use code tags. See reply #5.

Whats a code tag

Code tags are described in the posting instructions.
