|
|
|Newhaven Display NHD-C12832A1Z|ST7565R|128x32|Used by Ergodox Infinity; primary consumer of this feature|
|
|
|Zolentech ZLE12864B |ST7565P|128x64|Requires contrast adjustment |
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
To enable the feature, there are three steps. First, when compiling your keyboard, you'll need to add the following to your `rules.mk`:
|
|
|
|
```make
|
|
ST7565_ENABLE = yes
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then in your `keymap.c` file, implement the ST7565 task call. This example assumes your keymap has three layers named `_QWERTY`, `_FN` and `_ADJ`:
|
|
|
|
```c
|
|
#ifdef ST7565_ENABLE
|
|
void st7565_task_user(void) {
|
|
// Host Keyboard Layer Status
|
|
st7565_write_P(PSTR("Layer: "), false);
|
|
|
|
switch (get_highest_layer(layer_state)) {
|
|
case _QWERTY:
|
|
st7565_write_P(PSTR("Default\n"), false);
|
|
break;
|
|
case _FN:
|
|
st7565_write_P(PSTR("FN\n"), false);
|
|
break;
|
|
case _ADJ:
|
|
st7565_write_P(PSTR("ADJ\n"), false);
|
|
break;
|
|
default:
|
|
// Or use the write_ln shortcut over adding '\n' to the end of your string
|
|
st7565_write_ln_P(PSTR("Undefined"), false);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// Host Keyboard LED Status
|
|
led_t led_state = host_keyboard_led_state();
|
|
st7565_write_P(led_state.num_lock ? PSTR("NUM ") : PSTR(" "), false);
|
|
st7565_write_P(led_state.caps_lock ? PSTR("CAP ") : PSTR(" "), false);
|
|
st7565_write_P(led_state.scroll_lock ? PSTR("SCR ") : PSTR(" "), false);
|
|
}
|
|
#endif
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Logo Example
|
|
|
|
In the default font, certain ranges of characters are reserved for a QMK logo. To render this logo to the screen, use the following code example:
|
|
|
|
```c
|
|
static void render_logo(void) {
|
|
static const char PROGMEM qmk_logo[] = {
|
|
0x80, 0x81, 0x82, 0x83, 0x84, 0x85, 0x86, 0x87, 0x88, 0x89, 0x8A, 0x8B, 0x8C, 0x8D, 0x8E, 0x8F, 0x90, 0x91, 0x92, 0x93, 0x94,
|
|
0xA0, 0xA1, 0xA2, 0xA3, 0xA4, 0xA5, 0xA6, 0xA7, 0xA8, 0xA9, 0xAA, 0xAB, 0xAC, 0xAD, 0xAE, 0xAF, 0xB0, 0xB1, 0xB2, 0xB3, 0xB4,
|
|
0xC0, 0xC1, 0xC2, 0xC3, 0xC4, 0xC5, 0xC6, 0xC7, 0xC8, 0xC9, 0xCA, 0xCB, 0xCC, 0xCD, 0xCE, 0xCF, 0xD0, 0xD1, 0xD2, 0xD3, 0xD4, 0x00
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
st7565_write_P(qmk_logo, false);
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Buffer Read Example
|
|
For some purposes, you may need to read the current state of the display buffer. The `st7565_read_raw` function can be used to safely read bytes from the buffer.
|
|
|
|
In this example, calling `fade_display` in the `st7565_task_user` function will slowly fade away whatever is on the screen by turning random pixels off over time.
|
|
```c
|
|
//Setup some mask which can be or'd with bytes to turn off pixels
|
|
const uint8_t single_bit_masks[8] = {127, 191, 223, 239, 247, 251, 253, 254};
|
|
|
|
static void fade_display(void) {
|
|
//Define the reader structure
|
|
display_buffer_reader_t reader;
|
|
uint8_t buff_char;
|
|
if (random() % 30 == 0) {
|
|
srand(timer_read());
|
|
// Fetch a pointer for the buffer byte at index 0. The return structure
|
|
// will have the pointer and the number of bytes remaining from this
|
|
// index position if we want to perform a sequential read by
|
|
// incrementing the buffer pointer
|
|
reader = st7565_read_raw(0);
|
|
//Loop over the remaining buffer and erase pixels as we go
|
|
for (uint16_t i = 0; i < reader.remaining_element_count; i++) {
|
|
//Get the actual byte in the buffer by dereferencing the pointer
|
|
buff_char = *reader.current_element;
|
|
if (buff_char != 0) {
|
|
st7565_write_raw_byte(buff_char & single_bit_masks[rand() % 8], i);
|
|
}
|
|
//increment the pointer to fetch a new byte during the next loop
|
|
reader.current_element++;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Other Examples
|
|
|
|
In split keyboards, it is very common to have two displays that each render different content and are oriented or flipped differently. You can do this by switching which content to render by using the return value from `is_keyboard_master()` or `is_keyboard_left()` found in `split_util.h`, e.g:
|
|
|
|
```c
|
|
#ifdef ST7565_ENABLE
|
|
display_rotation_t st7565_init_user(display_rotation_t rotation) {
|
|
if (!is_keyboard_master()) {
|
|
return DISPLAY_ROTATION_180; // flips the display 180 degrees if offhand
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
return rotation;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
void st7565_task_user(void) {
|
|
if (is_keyboard_master()) {
|
|
render_status(); // Renders the current keyboard state (layer, lock, caps, scroll, etc)
|
|
} else {
|
|
render_logo(); // Renders a static logo
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
#endif
|
|
```
|
