Re: touch screen
For some reason, it's beginning to sound like the EEPROM is not getting written to. See what the EEPROM debug functions return which I mention in another post. Jack, W8TEE

After that's done the key values are stored in EEPROM and used
on the next reboot.

i got the touch screen to work(
miswired) and ran the calibration
routine but now it appears that the
calibration is not right. have run
the calibration several times with
the same results.
the buttons do not respond as i
thought they should.? if i press the
1800 key i get the 1500 instead.?
the top line of red buttons do not
work at all.? the other side on the
display seems to work though.
should the response time be 2-3 sec
thanks dave k7da

Re: touch screen
Dave: JackAl maintains a list of two sets of EEPROM values. They are referenced by the symbolic constants EEPROMDEFAULTOFFSET and EEPROMUSEROFFSET. Around line 980 in the JackAl.ino file, you will see: #ifdef DEBUG ? ShowEEPROMValues(); #endif If you add the following statement: #ifdef DEBUG ? ReadEEPROMSettings(EEPROMUSEROFFSET); ? ShowEEPROMValues();#endif you can get a display of the values you have written to EEPROM on the Serial monitor. If you change the argument to the ReadEEPROMSettings() to EEPROMDEFAULTOFFSET you will be able to see the default values for EEPROM. This assumes that you have line 4 in the JackAl.h header file uncommented: #define DEBUG??????????????? // Comment out when not debugging

Re: touch screen
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýhow do i read the eeprom values for the screen.? maybe the values are not getting written properly? and how do i make the serial port work. i have not been able to see anything on it. dave

Re: touch screen

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýDave,
Are you using the 7¡± screen? ?
Asking because I have the same problem with my screen which is a 7¡±. ?And after running for bit touch response gets worse and ultimately stops responding. ?Also noticed some flakyness with the display when changing screens. ?Buttons from main screen appearing
when they shouldn¡¯t. ?Strange behavior in general. ?Rebooting starts the process over it seems.

Re: confirmation of wiring Control Clock cable
In the second section of the jackAl manual, you'll find the description of J4 As you can see, pins 7 and 8 are tied together, as are pins 3 and 4. Both of these are GND connections on J4. Jack, W8TEE
