Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I recently found an e-paper display that I would like to test. The display is PervasiveDisplays E2266JS0C1  2.66".296×152. Black,white and red. I believe it is the same as Waveshare is using in 2.66". Hence I have some hope that Peter' 2018 code would be a good starting point.

Loading matherp's old e-paper drivers...but I immediately run into problems.

OPTION LCDPANEL USER is not working...Error : Invalid display type
I cannot find OPTION LCDPANEL USER in the PicoMite's or other mite's manuals. Suppose this is not a valid command anymore? Tried to search the manuals for guidance, but unfortunately without success.

(PicoMite MMBasic Version 5.08.00b4. No options selected yet.)

Any suggestions for getting forward with testing?

Thanks matherp!
Did not notice your post before now. (Did not expect that fast responce!)
Meanwhile I have made my own investigations about the display and concluded that my display does not have the same driver chip as yours. In fact I found a datasheet that I started to work on: 2.66" datasheet PervasiveDisplays

I have now managed to fill areas of the display with Black, White and Red. Not very useful, but at least some kind of starting point.

Maybe not the most elegant way to use the e-paper...

Step 1: Display the text/graphics on ILI9341 LCD in Black, White and Red
Step 2: Extract the black pixels from LCD into an array
Step 3: Extract the red pixels from LCD into an other array
Step 4: Send the arrays to the e-paper.

Hello,

Is there is a driver for the "Waveshare 4.2 inch e-paper module (400x300 pixels)"? I tried my luck with the 2.9 inch driver, but nothing happened... I own a 2.9 inch module, and the corresponding driver works just fine!

Hello and welcome.
I tried to connect a 2.9-inch waveshare and try the driver as in the first post... But it turned out that I had version v2 296x128 or 128x296. Is there any possibility for v2 to work? When I looked at v2, there are a lot of differences, but since I'm new to this wonderful Picomite software, I'm slowly giving up... Can you tell me where and what to change? From what I've gathered, the initialization is probably different and due to the handling of gray levels, it's very complicated for me... I'm trying to understand what this lut_full is, but I'm probably rusty because I'm from 1975... hihi... Regards and warmest regards thank you in advance for any help... PS... Sorry for my English, but it's because of the translator....
From what I saw on the 1054z oscilloscope, the pins work correctly....
Here is a photo of this display from the back.



From the front it looks the same as in the first post.
I thought it was damaged but I managed to find a ready-made uf2 demo for pico and upload it from github and it works...
But luckily, I don't know C, and for me, basic is still manageable in play at this age...
I am attaching photos of the finished uf2 from github...







Thank you all for such a beautiful gift in the form of picomite and for your contribution to this project. For me it's something beautiful - you can touch BASIC with such powerful functions. Best regards again. rubber1975.
