This repository contains customized copy of original fbcp-ili9341 repository by Jukka Jylänki. You can learn more about licensing in original README.md.
This version has a few new features and some changes. It also may not be fully tested on all device configurations, so keep this in mind when choosing this code over the official version.
~Good luck
The followinng displays are supported (see: config.h):
ILI9488 ILI9341 ILI9340 ILI9486L ILI9486 HX8357D ST7789VW ST7789 | ST7735S ST7735R SSD1351 MZ61581 MPI3501 KEDEI_V63_MPI3501 WAVESHARE35B_ILI9486 ADAFRUIT_ILI9341_PITFT | FREEPLAYTECH_WAVESHARE32B WAVESHARE_ST7789VW_HAT PIRATE_AUDIO_ST7789_HAT WAVESHARE_ST7735S_HAT ADAFRUIT_HX8357D_PITFT TONTEC_MZ61581 |
The installation is not fully automatic, you need to spend some time on going through the config.h. Once it's done you could just copy the code onto your device, launch installer annd follow the instructions. It's pretty simple for those linux where it was tested.
Before the installation uncomment all the options that suitable for your setup in config.h, leave commented what you don't need. Also have check fbcpX.conf which is operational config that could be found in /etc/fbcpx
diirectory.
You also may wish to personalize splash screen. To do so you need to use img2bin.sh shell script.
Just choose an image (jpg/png), copy it into in
directory, run the script to check the options. Normally your command line would look like:
~$ ./img2bin.sh -r 100:100 -b 2 -bg 0000 myimage.jpg
You may chouse to use eather:
~$ ./install.sh
or manual method, using:
~$ cmake -S ./src -B ./build
~$ make -C ./build
Signal | Description |
---|---|
SIGUSR1 | toggle backlight (if backlight control enabled) |
SIGUSR2 | switch on/off display (if display driver can do that) |
SIGPROF | manually clear screen |
Once display is in sleep mode if set turn_off_after
and ignore_redraw_area
it can be turned active again by using SIGUSR2.
If you are using fbcpX as a service:
~$ systemctl kill --signal=SIGUSR2 fbcpX
If it's a proccess:
~$ pkill --signal SIGUSR2 fbcpx
In previous versions you'd need to compile the code defining configuration throgh command line. Now we can avoid this by using config.h
and fbcpX.conf
.
Let me know in issues 🪲 if you have any suggestion or found an error. |
