Getting Started

Last revision 2026/01/18

This guide focuses on the essential precautions and steps needed to successfully set up an Arduino project, including proper cable orientation, library installation, wiring, and uploading sample code.

Precautions

  • The metal contacts of the FPC flex cable need to face the white part of the GDI connector. If unsure about orientation, reverse connection is protected (no risk of damage).
  • Before burning demos, enable the correct U8G2 function: U8G2_SSD1309_128X64_NONAME2_1_4W_HW_SPI u8g2.

Must-Do Steps

  1. Prepare required hardware (main controller, display module, Dupont wires).
  2. Install Arduino IDE and U8g2 Arduino Library.
  3. Wire the display to the main controller per the connection diagram.
  4. Verify the FPC cable orientation and interface selection.
  5. Upload the sample code to the main controller.
