// vi:ts=4 // ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- // UpTime - simple demonstration of lcd // Created by Bill Perry 2017-05-11 // bperrybap@opensource.billsworld.billandterrie.com // // This example code is unlicensed and is released into the public domain // ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- // // This sketch is for the Nortake CU165ECBP-T2J display // // Sketch will print "UpTime" on the lcd, // wait a few seconds, and then print the amount of time since // the Arduino has been reset. // // If initialization of the LCD fails and the arduino supports a built in LED, // the sketch will simply blink the built in LED. // // Datasheet can be found here: // http://www.blog.zapro.dk/wp-content/CU165.pdf // Full datasheet/release notes: // http://www.blog.zapro.dk/wp-content/CU165ECPB_T2J_specification.pdf // // The device uses SPI for communication. // Pinout: // 1 Vcc // 2 GND // 3 /CS (SS) - Digital Pin 10 on Uno // 4 CLK (SCK) - Digital Pin 13 on Uno // 5 DATA (MOSI) - Digital Pin 11 on Uno // #include // optional, include to use h/w spi #include // main hd44780 header #include // include io class header // constructor parameters: // lcd([cs], [clock, data]) // If no parameters, then library will use SS, SCK, and MOSI pins // If cs parameter specified, then use it for chip select then SCK and MOSI // If is included and clock & data pins match h/w SPI pins SCK and MOSI, // h/w spi will be used // If h/w spi is not possible, then the code will fall back to bit banging. // // NOTE: // - Leonardo h/w is "stupid" and does not bring out SS // (it only drives an LED) // - Leonardo does not bring SPI signals to female headers, // they are only on 6 pin ISP header. // - ESP8266 is does not use naked constants for digital pin numbers // // // To work around these pin issues in this sketch, // Leonardo will use uno digital pins for SPI h/w which means it will // will not use h/w spi. All the other boards will use the h/w SPI pins. // Consult board pinout diagram to see where SS, SCK, and MOSI are available. // #if defined(ARDUINO_AVR_LEONARDO) || ( (USB_VID == 0x2341) && (USB_PID == 0x8036) ) const int cs=10, clk=13, data=11; // uno SPI pins (s/w bit banging will be used) #else const int cs=SS, clk=SCK, data=MOSI; // use h/w SPI pins on all other boards #endif hd44780_NTCU165ECPB lcd(cs, clk, data); // declare lcd object // LCD geometry const int LCD_COLS = 16; const int LCD_ROWS = 1; void setup() { int status; // Special Note: // ============= // Since this device uses a write only SPI interface, there is no way for // the library/sketch to know if the device is present or if there is any // type of issue communicating with the device. // // initialize LCD with number of columns and rows: lcd.begin(LCD_COLS, LCD_ROWS); // Print banner message to the LCD lcd.print("UpTime:"); } void loop() { static unsigned long lastsecs = -1; // pre-initialize with non zero value unsigned long secs; int status; secs = millis() / 1000; // see if 1 second has passed // so the display is only updated once per second if(secs != lastsecs) { lastsecs = secs; // keep track of last seconds // set the cursor position to column 8, row 0 // note: row 0 is the top line // since row counting begins with 0 status = lcd.setCursor(8, 0); if(status) // non zero status means it was unsuccesful { // setCursor() failed so call fatalError() with the error code. hd44780::fatalError(status); // does not return } // print uptime on lcd device: (time since last reset) PrintUpTime(lcd, secs); } } // PrintUpTime(outdev, secs) - print uptime in HH:MM:SS format // outdev - the device to send output // secs - the total number of seconds uptime // // This is a fancy output routine. // outdev is a Print class object which indicates // where the output should be sent. // PrintUpTime can be used with any object that uses the Print class. // This code works with Serial objects, as well as the the hd44780 lcd objects. // i.e. you can call with Serial: PrintUpTime(Serial, seconds); void PrintUpTime(Print &outdev, unsigned long secs) { unsigned int hr, mins, sec; // convert total seconds to hours, mins, seconds mins = secs / 60; // how many total minutes hr = mins / 60; // how many total hours mins = mins % 60; // how many minutes within the hour sec = secs % 60; // how many seconds within the minute // print uptime in HH:MM:SS format if(hr > 99) hr %= 100; // limit hr to 0-99 // Print class does not support fixed width formatting // so insert a zero if number smaller than 10 if(hr < 10) outdev.write('0'); outdev.print((int)hr); outdev.write(':'); if(mins < 10) outdev.write('0'); outdev.print((int)mins); outdev.write(':'); if(sec < 10) outdev.write('0'); outdev.print((int)sec); }
