Hi folks, I have a two year old tft color display I have never used. I am now ready to give it a home, but alas, I have no details on the unit. It has a 36-pin connection point on the end as well as a 6-pin and an 8-pin on opposite sides of the back. The ONLY thing I can find printed anywhere on the front or back is the following website... http://www.womarts.com ... I visited this site to find nothing but parts for quad copters and the such. There are numerous offerings of displays throughout eBay, but none like what I have. I will likely need to use some sort of shield, but all those offered I have found have 40-pin headers on the end.
Question, is there anyone familiar with this unit that may be able to enlighten me on how to connect it to..anything. My intent is to use it as a weather station display with an Arduino, possibly the nano since I have five or six of them not being used. If that doesn't work, I also have a few other various flavors available.
Try the UTFT library on an Arduino Mega, with this as your constructor.
UTFT myGLCD(CTE40, 38, 39, 40, 41);

No you wont, that style is designed to plug directly in to your Mega.
