Re: Nextion Display Install #nextion #v6


 

Ok please forgive me folks. I am at a point where I am having 1-2 surgeries every week for the next month. This handicaps me farther from all of the drugs that they are giving me.?
I am trying to install a Nextion 3.5" display on my uBITX v6. For the Raduino, I loaded up the file that is named: UBITXV5_CEC_V1.200_NX and it is in HEX File format. I got the file from the link that Evan AC9TU shared with me on message #93965. (Evan has made it a habit of saving my skin from my uBITX misadventures. Thank you Evan) I used the XLoader software and there did not seem to be any trouble loading it up.?

My troubles are with the Nextion Display. I format a micro SD card to FAT32. Then I load the file?ubitx_35.tft?on the SD card. I then wire up the 3.5" Nextion display to the TFT Display Header on the Raduino. Here is how I wire it up.?
RED Wire- +5V?to pin #1 on the TFT Header (I am asuming that the pin numbers on the TFT Display starts at the top and goes down then the Raduino is plugged into the uBITX board)
BLACK Wire - Ground?to Pin #2
YELLOW Wire - RX???to Pin # 5
Blue Wire - TX?to Pin #11

When I power everything up the Raduino shows that it is powered up, I can see this because of the red LED light on the raduino lights up. However the Nextion does not light up at all. I have tried this with both a 2.8" Nextion and a 3.5" with the same results on both.?
If I plug the Nextion Display up to a 5V source (when I do this I am not using the yellow or blue wires) The Nextion display lights up with a white screen that says:
SIZE: 1967505
COPY SD:
0%
And that is it, it never goes above 0%
If I were to load Reeds Arduino Sketch to the Raduino and put the stock TFT display back on everything works.
So I believe that I am doing something wrong with loading the firmware to the Nextion and hooking the Nextion up to the Raduino. I'm stuck here and I'm not sure what my next step should be.?
