Hi, I've been trying to use this lcd for quite a while, but everything I did doesn't work at all.
Of course i've tried the scanner code, both from the IDE and from online so there are no problems on the core nor the library themselves, but it deosn't work, it just gets stuck on "Scanning..." and doesn't even re-try after a while.
Still, here's the code and the photos of the connections and the monitor output.
#include <Wire.h>
void setup() {
Wire.begin();
Serial.begin(9600);
while (!Serial); // Leonardo: wait for serial monitor
Serial.println("\nI2C Scanner");
}
void loop() {
int nDevices = 0;
Serial.println("Scanning...");
for (byte address = 1; address < 127; ++address) {
// The i2c_scanner uses the return value of
// the Write.endTransmisstion to see if
// a device did acknowledge to the address.
Wire.beginTransmission(address);
byte error = Wire.endTransmission();
if (error == 0) {
Serial.print("I2C device found at address 0x");
if (address < 16) {
Serial.print("0");
}
Serial.print(address, HEX);
Serial.println(" !");
++nDevices;
} else if (error == 4) {
Serial.print("Unknown error at address 0x");
if (address < 16) {
Serial.print("0");
}
Serial.println(address, HEX);
}
}
if (nDevices == 0) {
Serial.println("No I2C devices found\n");
} else {
Serial.println("done\n");
}
delay(5000); // Wait 5 seconds for next scan
}
PS: I know it's not an original board, but it works exactly as an original one, plus it's the same IC.
