Re: Adafruit Feather RP2040 and 2.9" eInk
Try using these pin defines:
The sketch also has a wait loop for the Serial Monitor. So it will not run until the Serial Monitor is opened. Be sure to do that also.
Code: Select all
#define EPD_DC 10 // can be any pin, but required!
#define EPD_CS 9 // can be any pin, but required!
#define EPD_BUSY -1 // can set to -1 to not use a pin (will wait a fixed delay)
#define SRAM_CS -1 // can set to -1 to not use a pin (uses a lot of RAM!)
#define EPD_RESET -1 // can set to -1 and share with chip Reset (can't deep sleep)

Thank you for fast reply and help,
I read before and make it that modifications in the code,
I also saw in the example that the serial monitor opens and I assumed it was a connection with that, but I wasn't sure,
now you have confirmed it to me, thank you.
the problem is that I do not have any COM active like in that example, IDE is an older version 1.8.8,
because I use some old libraries for other projects, who not work with the new ones, like arduinojson who is 5.13.1.
what do I have to do to have a serial monitor as an example, must to install all the new versions ?
Thank you in advance!

Those menu items look correct. Do they not open a Serial Monitor window?

unfortunately no,
it say I not have a board on COM,
Port is inactive because not see RP2040,
even if this is in USB normally or in bootloader
in the previous post, first picture is from Adafruit page,
second image is my example, there is not that arrow up and "M"

Weird. Not sure why you are unable to get a com port to show up and a Serial Monitor won't open.
As another approach, you can just comment out the wait loop. Change these lines:
