Display-O-Tron 3000 not displaying text

Post by sensilab »

Hi,
I recently purchased a Display-O-Tron 3000 from you. I've downloaded and run the example code from github. While the backlight and bar graph works, none of the lcd text functions will display anything on the display.

There are no error messages and SPI and I2C seem to be working correctly.

What kind of Pi do you have? Can you post some pictures of how you have it connected?
