Nice to work with good barebones desktops

I'm new to the Arduino world and am really enjoying it. I am using an Onyehn matrix module with an Arduino Mega2560. It took some time to learn the pinout to get it working. Googling I was able to find some posts on the Arduino website where someone had similar problems. If you are using the MD_Max7219 library and ICSTATION_HW is not working, try this if you are using the Ardiuno Mega2560 board. Try this pinout if the program is using <SIP.h> and you are having trouble getting it. display correctly. First I tried to use different digital contacts but someone said that SIP uses them? I don't know why it matters, but it does. Something to learn and understand in the future. That's half the fun/disappointment. lol#define HARDWARE_TYPE MD_MAX72XX::FC16_HW#define CLK_PIN 52 // or SCK#define DATA_PIN 51 // or MOSI#define CS_PIN 53 // or SS

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • I'll be silent
