[NANO] SSD1327 Display is not recieving input

Using Arduino Displays
1

Hey there, I've been trying to make some graphics display from a Nano on to an I2C 128x96 SSD1327 display I bought from Temu (yes I know it's not reliable but I can't afford anything else), and I can't seem to get it to work. It does not appear when running any kind of I2C scan. I've created some code in hopes that it would work, but no luck. Here's the code though:

#include <Arduino.h>
#include <U8g2lib.h>
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Wire.h>

U8G2_SSD1327_VISIONOX_128X96_F_SW_I2C u8g2(U8G2_R0, 21, 22);

void setup(void) {
  u8g2.begin();
}

void loop(void) {
  u8g2.clearBuffer();
  u8g2.setFont(u8g2_font_ncenB14_tr);
  u8g2.drawStr(0,20,"Hello World!");
  u8g2.sendBuffer();
}

I have the SDA pin connected to the A4, and the SCL connected to the A5, the GND connected to GND pin 29, and VCC connected to 3V3.
Any tips?

Thanks,
NuLL

Try:


#include <Arduino.h>
#include <U8g2lib.h>
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Wire.h>

U8G2_SSD1327_VISIONOX_128X96_F_SW_I2C u8g2(U8G2_R0, 21, 22);


void setup(void) 
{
  u8g2.begin();

  u8g2.clearBuffer();
  u8g2.setFont(u8g2_font_ncenB14_tr);
  u8g2.drawStr(0,20,"Hello World!");
  u8g2.sendBuffer();

}

void loop(void) 
{

}

Why are you using software I2C instead of hardware?
A4 is digital pin 18, A5 is 19. Do not use the physical pin numbering for the holes in the Nano.

If the I2C scanner cannot locate the board, then there is something wrong.
Do you have the headers or wires soldered to the Nano and the display?

I'm using F-F jumper wires, the display is a module and has a standard 4 male ends to plug jumpers into.

I'm a noob, that's why. Sorry for my stupidity! I just googled "arduino nano pin numbers"

No luck with u8g2. I'll have to try the Adafruit lib next, thanks for your insight!

Here's my setup (I moved the extra F-F wires after this):

Hey there, does anyone have any ideas?
