Re: pyboard with a VGA display

I just completed the cursor positioning and screen clear in uPython. I also have an expansion board made up for it so it can stack on top or bottom of the SuperPyBoard.

Re: pyboard with a VGA display

I have some pictures that show both the high resolution displays and the high resolution display. Also, you can get a pic of the circuit board I have had made. I can't figure out how to get them pasted into this message on the forum. I will send them to anyone who contacts me on outdoorman25@gmail.c...

pyboard with a VGA display

I have developed what I call a SuperPyBoard. It is a board for the pyboard that lets you have a high resolution VGA monitor connected to the pyboard with a UART. This frees up the pyboard to do what you really want it to do without spending a lot of time refreshing a display. Send out the character ...

Re: The baudrate changes when I import a module

The baudrate changes when I import a module

I am having trouble with my pyboard. I created a little module to test out the ability to write programs and import them into my pyboard. The program is: def t1(): print('Hello') When I try to import the file, the main screen on my computer continues to work but the uart on UART 3 changes to some un...

Re: Getting a REPL prompt via UART instead of via USB

Thank you. I can get it to work from the USB REPL but when I put it into boot.py or main.py it doesn't work. What am I missing?

Getting a REPL prompt via UART instead of via USB

I am trying to untether from my laptop and run the pboard over a serial UART signal. I am building an embedded data acquisition system, using the pboard. I have created a serial to VGA board and I will use that to display data, just need access to the REPL prompt. Can't find any information on the m...

pyboard v1.1 input problem

I just got a new pyboard v1.1 and I was wondering if anyone else was having problems loading programs from notepad on a pc? On my v1.0, I can copy and paste the code from notepad and it loads as if I typed it from the terminal. However on my new pyboard v1.1, when I load the following program, it ge...
