    • Core2 Touchscreen Rotary Dial

      Hi

      Did anyone make, and share, some code (I code in C using Arduino IDE and/or PlatformIO/VSCode) for a rotary dial on the core2 touch-screen?
      Or a slider?

    • M5Core2 libraries install in PlatformIO/VSCode

      Hi

      How do I setup PlatformIO in VSCode so I can write apps for the M5Stack Core 2, i.e. get the libraries into VSCode/PlatformIO? I seem to only be able to install them specifically for a single project.

      Can I get the examples easily into VSCode/PlatformIO, like in the Arduino IDE?

      Thanks

    • RE: How to adapt Core code to Core2?

      @felmue

      Yes, but since none of these function calls reside in my code, but (I assume) in libraries, I would have expected this to be handled by using M5Core2.h and choosing the correct target in the IDE.

      I can't see what else to change, other than replacing some libraries, but what to replace, and with what, in that case.

    • How to adapt Core code to Core2?

      Hi

      I have some code that compiles and runs fine for Core
      So I replaced M5Stack.h with M5core.h and compiled it for the Core2 and downloaded.
      But it just keeps rebooting.

      Here's what I get in the serial window. Any suggestions on what is wrong and needs to be adapted to make Core-code work in a Core2?

    • GPIO16 as input not working?

      Hi

      I am trying to use GPIO16 as input on an M5Stack Core, but it does not work.
      I tried using GPIO35 instead and that worked fine.

      But I want this signal on GPIO16. Any ideas on how to make that work?
      When searching for info on this I have not found any info that it shouldn't work. In general it says that it should work to use GPIO16 both as output and input.

      I am using GPIO17 as output and that is working fine.

    • RE: Does LoRaWAN not work as specified?

      I thought I had LoRaWan868 but it seems I have LoRaWan (as they are black)

      The blue ones I think are called just LoRa868, this one-
      https://shop.m5stack.com/products/lora-module-868mhz?variant=31093175910490

      I see there is also a module called LoRaWan868 but that has a different formfactor, not stackable.

      It said clearly in the spec sheet for the module I have, I have double checked, that it should work with P2P.

      THe module I linked in the OP is the one I have. It is named I think LoRaWAN, and it supports the 868 MHz band.

    • RE: Convert Core code to Core2

      Thanks!

      For some reason I had to remove the M5Stack library entirely from the libs-folder, then it worked. Annoying.

    • RE: Does LoRaWAN not work as specified?

      Finally I got the code to compile and download to the M5 without hanging it.

      But transmission does not work, and after some debugging I found out that anything that is sent to the LoRa-module, is responded with "+ERROR: Command does not exist".

      So at least the LoRa module is alive and communication with it is working. But the LoRa-library attached to this example seems not to match the M5 LoRaWAN module.

    • RE: Does LoRaWAN not work as specified?

      @felmue

      Thanks!

      I am trying to compile these, and they compile fine for Core, but I have a Core2, and then they don't compile, not even when M5Core2.h is included, with or without M5Stack.h

      Any advice on how to get them to compile for Core2?

    • Convert Core code to Core2

      Hi

      How can I change this code so it compiles for M5Stack-Core2 AWS instead of M5Stack-Core?

      I tried replacing the M5Stack.h include with M5Core2.h but it didn't help. I also tried adding the latter to the first, but it also didn't help.

      Thanks!

    • Does LoRaWAN not work as specified?

      Hi

      I got two LoRaWan868 for node to node communication. In my efforts to find some example code for this, I find a lot of posts here mentioning the module will not work for node to node communication. Is this correct, that it doesn't?

      Because the specification is really clear that it does. Even the first sentence in the first paragraph in the M5-store states that it does?

      So, will it work, or should I stop wasting my time?

      If it works, is there any example code for node to node communication anyone could point me at?

      Thanks!

      Link to shop with description saying it supports node to node communication.

    • WARNING: Commu module crippled by design, RS485 totally useless

      Hi

      I got two Commu modules to use in an RS485 network.
      However, to my surprise I find out it doesn't work because the RS485 transceiver chip has its Data input signal tied to ground, so it cannot transmit any data. Also, the enable signals are inverted, that may be a minor issue, but still the same. Extremely odd to "offer" something that will not work at all, and for seemingly no good reason what so ever.

      Totally useless piece of junk! I will be extremely careful before buying any M5 stuff again.
