MicroView Arduino Library

Developed by Geek Ammo Pty Ltd based on Arduino and other Open Source libraries.

Description

Arduino library for MicroView.

Required Libraries

1. Time.h NOTE: Only required when using clock/time functions. For example the MicroViewDemo in the example folder.

Installation

1. Extract / Check out to Arduino's libraries folder.
2. Start Arduino IDE.
3. MicroView example is located at, File--->Example--->MicroView--->MicroViewDemo

Example 1 - Hello World!

#include <MicroView.h>

void setup() {
	uView.begin();
}

void loop() {
	uView.print("HelloWorld");
	uView.display();		// display current page buffer
}

Example 2 - Basic Drawing

#include <MicroView.h>

void setup() {
	uView.begin();
	uView.clear(PAGE);		// clear the page buffer
}

void loop() {
	uView.line(0,0,64,48);
	uView.circle(32,24,10);
	uView.rect(10,10,20,20);
	uView.pixel(50,5);
	uView.setCursor(0,40);
	uView.print(" MicroView");
	uView.display();		// display current page buffer
}

Example 3 - Widgets

#include <MicroView.h>

MicroViewWidget *widget,*widget2;

void setup() {
	uView.begin();
	uView.clear(PAGE);
	widget= new MicroViewGauge(32,30,0,100);  // draw Gauge widget at x=32,y=30,min=0, max=100
	widget2= new MicroViewSlider(0,0,0,100);  // draw Slider widget at x=0,y=0,min=0, max=100
}

void loop() {
	for(int i=0; i<=100;i++) {
		widget->setValue(i);	// give a value to widget
		widget2->setValue(i);
		uView.display();		// display current page buffer
	}
}

Example 4 - Communication

#include <MicroView.h>

void setup() {
  uView.begin();
  uView.clear(PAGE);
}

void loop() {
  uView.checkComm();
}
