How do I change codes made for OLED to lcd

bheeduino · November 28, 2021, 4:33pm

I want to make a diy soldering station and am using a heater with a k type thermocouple. A descent one I found was from electronoobs, this one with some major modifications. He is using an i2c oled display, but I want to use a 16x2 lcd. Any help with changing the code? I'm a beginner and here's the code, Click here for code

Please don't make anyone download a zip.

Post the code, in code tags.

Members do not like to download code. We especially dislike downloading zip files from unknown places. Read the forum guidelines to see how to properly post code and some hints on how to get the most from this forum.
Use the IDE autoformat tool (ctrl-t or Tools, Auto format) before posting code in code tags.

basically you must check each line of code containing a

display.

and you must change the OLED specific methods to LCD specific methods.

you must decide, what information you need on your 16x2, because you might have less space than on an OLED
example:
this:

      display.clearDisplay();
      display.setTextSize(3);
      display.setTextColor(WHITE);
      display.setCursor(20,4);
      display.print("SLEEP");   
      display.display();

will become something like

      display.clear();  // to be checked if clear is a good idea here
      display.setCursor(0,1);
      display.print("SLEEP");

additionally the LCD object should be called display (instead of lcd like in most of the examples).
and you can remove all
display.display();

I suggest you start with some examples from the LCD library so you get used to it.

So basically, replace the oled libraries with the 16x2, replace the lines but keep the 'display. ' . Right?

johnwasser · November 29, 2021, 2:22am

And get rid of the 'logo' images since the LCD is not a graphical display.

bheeduino · November 29, 2021, 9:59am

Okay, thanks everyone!

bheeduino · December 1, 2021, 3:49pm

I ran onto another problem. As suggested, I kept the prefix display.

display.clear() ;

Instead of the normal

lcd.clear() ;

And I get an error

'display' was not declared in this scope
Exit status 1
display. setCursor(0, 0) ;
^~~~~

anon73444976 · December 1, 2021, 3:50pm

We can't see your code

bheeduino · December 1, 2021, 3:54pm

It's there, I posted it in the replies
Another update I replaced all

display.clear() ;
display.print() ;

Etc.. With

lcd.clear() ;
lcd.print() ;

And it compiled successfully. I will upload and test the code and test circuit tomorrow as I live in India and need to sleep

anon73444976 · December 1, 2021, 3:58pm

But display in that code refers to the Adafruit device, and you will have removed the bitmaps, so that code is not current.

Please post the actual error message(s) - all of them.

bheeduino · December 3, 2021, 3:01pm

So, good news and bad news.
The code got uploaded and test circuit works fine.
But the pid doesn't work, pin 3 is always pulled high and no pwm signal is produced

noiasca · December 3, 2021, 3:44pm

chapter 6 describes exactly what you you should do now:

[url]https://forum.arduino.cc/t/read-this-before-posting-a-programming-question/95349[/url]

johnwasser · December 3, 2021, 4:07pm

Could it be the PID thinks the heater should be on full? That would set the PWM value to 255 and cause Pin 3 to be ON.

If your soldering station is up to temperature and the heater is STILL on full, you may have a problem with your temperature sensor. Are you displaying the temperature reading? Is it changing as expected?

bheeduino · December 4, 2021, 1:10am

As my heating element hasn't arrived yet, I am using a k type thermocouple which came with the MAX6675 and heating it up with my normal iron, and even when the temperature goes higher than the set one, it still stays at 5v.
I tested this first with an led and then with an oscilloscope. Same result

bheeduino · December 4, 2021, 1:32am

That page doesn't exist @noiasca

johnwasser · December 4, 2021, 3:08pm

I would put in a bunch of Serial.print() to report all of the PID values:

      P_pid = kp * error;
      I_pid = I_pid + (ki * error);
      D_pid =  kd*((error - previous_error)/(Delay/1000));
      PID_value = P_pid + I_pid + D_pid;

Serial.print("T=");
Serial.print(temperature_read);
Serial.print(", e=");
Serial.print(error);
Serial.print(", e%="); 
Serial.print(error_percent);
Serial.print(", P=");
Serial.print(P_pid);
Serial.print(", I=");
Serial.print(I_pid);
Serial.print(", D=");
Serial.print(D_pid)
Serial.print(", PID=");
Serial.println(PID_value);

bheeduino · December 5, 2021, 11:08am

I just put

Serial.println(PID_value) ;

And it showed 255 which was definitely a problem
I tweaked the code a lot and seems to work fine now
Thanks everyone! The final breadboeard prototype works fine and I am currently moving it to a perfboard. After I finish it I will update the results!
