KD8CEC - Nextion Display - IAN questions

 

Kevin,

Yes, that's right,
I will only support 2.4 "and 2.8" for the time being.?However, on my distribution list, you will find the GUI files for 3.2 "and 3.5".
They were converted to 3.5 "using the 2.8" GUI.
It will work normally, but it will probably look a little awkward.?
In the Nextion Editor, you can convert to a different resolution with a click of the mouse.

But I keep getting emails saying that I have successfully converted to 3.2, 3.5 "or even 7" LCD.
They work nicely by modifying the entire GUI to fit the LCD.?
You can ask them to get a 3.5 "file.?But please wait for the beta version to finish. There are a few additional features to add.

I'm about to embark on the nextion journey and see that you support the 2.4 and 2.8 displays. Will the 3.2 work also, albeit with a smaller amount of screen real estate filled??

Ian :?

I am very impressed with KB8CEC v1.094, this plus the Nextion Display is a real game changer for the uBITX !?
It feels like I am now using a new radio ;-)?

Can I make a suggestion for some future enhancements ?

1) Make the Tuning Step an on-screen button so that tapping on it will allow the selection of the tuning step.
?
? ?This is something that anyone using both CW and SSB will want to change all the time and it is difficult to get at currently.

2) Provide an on-screen button to access the CW settings.
? ?Things like offset and break-in delay don't get changed very often but ?CW operators who are using Iambic keying
? ?need to be able to quickly change code speed?. Also many of us use both?paddles and straight keys so it would also be nice to
? ?able to quickly access selection that from the display. This also makes adjusting an antenna tuner simpler if you can switch
? from Iambic to Straight Key and push the DIT paddle to generate a carrier.?

One thought is that you might be able to make it context sensitive so that buttons specific to CW operation only appear when the mode is CWU or CWL ??
Just a thought.?

Thanks for all of the great work on this !

Cheers

Thanks for your suggestion.

Rough translation ?....?

?"He is wondering why for firmware v1.094 there are .HEX files available but no source files, ?as with his Mac has has no way to transfer .HEX files to the Raduino."

Thank you Michael for the translation, I could have done with a translator on the internet.

Tank you Art
I download and test for my raduino.

Hello
i tried hexuploader and it does not work with nano arduino while it works with arduino uno. he puts as a message:

avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage (): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage (): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage (): timeout
.
.
.avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage (): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage (): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage (): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage (): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage (): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage (): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_getsync (): timeout communicating with program


It does not matter, I will wait to have the source files.

Thank you

Michel
 

Michel,

If you have the Arduino IDE, there is a command line utility built into the package. it is called "AVRDude" and can be executed from a terminal window. Here is the command line that works with my setup.

avrdude -pm328p -carduino -P/dev/ttyUSB0 -b57600 -Uflash:w:ubitx_CEC1.01.hex:i

The filename you want to load? (.hex file) is just after the 'w:'? I execute this line after navigating to the file location directory/file in the terminal program. The help function for avrdude explains all the switches that can be invoked.

Hope this helps.
 

Merci
Je vais essayer .
Ce n est pas grave si cela ne fonctionne pas.
Je ne suis pas habitu¨¦ au lignes de commande.
J utiliserai IDE Raduino lorsque on aura le fichier source.
De toutes fa?on j ai aussi un PC et l¨¤ pas de probl¨¨mes.
 

"Je ne suis pas habitu¨¦ au lignes de commande."

Neither was I, but I am learning.

Bon chance.
 

lan I cannot find you file named ubit_24.tft.

Hi Ian,
I am using the software version 1.095 on my ubitx
I was wondering if there was a way to get to this particular screen, or is this a screen from the next version ?
thanks,

actually, i want to add a button on the front of my rig to get to that screen.

Kevin,

You just tap on the display digits to get to that screen.

Thanks for all the information regarding the Nextion Displays..
I have finally installed the 5" display and it works very well!
My question is, Has anyone devised a way to eliminate the buzzing
noise on the upper bands?
Kind Regards...

I have this issue too, when The volume is down there is a buzz. It goes away a little when i turn volume half way, then comes back when i turn volume to max.

I¡¯m gonna try a resistor and cap mentioned in this post first, but I will try the bug spray if it don¡¯t work. :)
