  HI @felmue , Thankyou for your reply :) I had already striped the LCD code its the M5Stack header (and includes) itself that doesn't want to compile. The only samples that compile are the factory test and Ethernet stream which leads me to believe their isn't a board specific header as such. digging through the platform library there is a pin_header #ifndef Pins_Arduino_h #define Pins_Arduino_h #include <stdint.h> #define EXTERNAL_NUM_INTERRUPTS 16 #define NUM_DIGITAL_PINS 40 #define NUM_ANALOG_INPUTS 16 #define analogInputToDigitalPin(p) (((p)<20)?(esp32_adc2gpio[(p)]):-1) #define digitalPinToInterrupt(p) (((p)<40)?(p):-1) #define digitalPinHasPWM(p) (p < 34) static const uint8_t TX = 1; static const uint8_t RX = 3; static const uint8_t SDA = 25; static const uint8_t SCL = 33; static const uint8_t G23 = 23; static const uint8_t G25 = 25; static const uint8_t G27 = 27; static const uint8_t G22 = 22; static const uint8_t G26 = 26; static const uint8_t G21 = 21; static const uint8_t G32 = 32; static const uint8_t G35 = 35; static const uint8_t G34 = 34; static const uint8_t G5 = 5; static const uint8_t G39 = 39; static const uint8_t G18 = 18; static const uint8_t G36 = 36; static const uint8_t G19 = 19; static const uint8_t G15 = 15; static const uint8_t G2 = 2; static const uint8_t G33 = 33; static const uint8_t G13 = 13; static const uint8_t G4 = 4; static const uint8_t G0 = 0; static const uint8_t DAC1 = 25; static const uint8_t DAC2 = 26; static const uint8_t ADC1 = 35; static const uint8_t ADC2 = 36; #endif /* Pins_Arduino_h */ which of course is one of the many reasons why the example library doesn't compile,my device simply has different pins. In the factory test I see the references to UART Ext_PIN_1 and Ext_PIN_2 : Serial.println("UART INIT"); uart_init(Ext_PIN_1, Ext_PIN_2); which is defiend in timer_cam_config.h #define Ext_PIN_1 33 #define Ext_PIN_2 25 So lets strip off the header and run it with the pure Arduino. #include <Arduino.h> void setup() { pinMode(33, INPUT_PULLUP); Serial.begin(115200); } void loop() { Serial.println(digitalRead(33)); delay(1000); } It works but only if I set the board to M5Stack-Timer-CAM. Additionally the Ethernet-Stream example needs the network.h header lines 16-17 altered as below else it will not compile static ip4_addr_t ip_addr; // For platform = espressif32@ ^3.5.0 //static esp_ip4_addr_t ip_addr; // For platform = espressif32@ ^5.1.0 I will post this in the modules forum for other users trying to build the examples, apologies for putting this in FAQ (it was late/early)

  Hello @hello hmm, it seems unlikely to me that every regular phone ever made has its IMEI in the Verizon DMD to be able to access the Verizon network. I still think the IMEI only needs to be in the DMD if that device wants to use the Verizon IoT platform. Have you tried different SIM cards? Thanks Felix

  M5sTACK ATOM LITE with PbHUB and sensors: how do I set this up for ESPHOME?

  @gunnm I do not have any experience with ESPHOME, I use Arduino and write directly with C, C++! The PaHub (named after the 'Grove port A' I2C port in the M5Stack system) is an i2c expander. So if you have a bunch of i2c devices they can be plugged in and "polled" and read over a single i2c connection. The devices can even have the same i2c address, like having two ENV sensors, without conflict. Works very well. 'Polled' is where sensors are read one at a time and their value 'at that moment' is read and transmitted to the Atom The PbHub (also polled) on the other hand connects to your controller the same way, i2c, but hosts almost any 'discrete' sensor like a switch or a lamp (GPIO, PWM, Servo control, ADC sampling, RGB light control) but remember that it has to squish the signals of all those devices into one i2c channel, so some very high speed devices may jitter. Very short signals such as an encoder blip could be missed altogether, periodically. -Terry

  Hello @ajb2k3 I took a look on your UIFlow handbook for some examples on serial communication. I found this: It seems the code is almost the same than the one generated for me by UIFlow. The imported libraries are the same than the ones I have in my code: from m5stack import from m5ui import from uiflow import On the example provided by my reader's provider; they import this library: " #include <SoftwareSerial.h>" https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/Grove-125KHz_RFID_Reader/#play-with-arduino But I think this is the implémentation for Arduino and I guess the equivalent UIFlow libraries are loaded through this: from m5stack import from m5ui import from uiflow import Do I miss something ? On my side I think the reader works because when I bring a RFID tag close to it; the status led of the reader lights up. But I still receive nothing on the M5 core RX PIN Thank you for your help Best regards

  I am still getting a "can't convert float to int" error whenever I use a variable in the by argument in the count with i from to block. If I use an integer block in by it works fine. If I set a variable to the same integer it gives me an error and if I convert to int or convert to float I get the same error. If I click on details it reads: File<'string'> line57 in <module> TypeError: can't convert float to int. This is a bummer since I need to use a variable in the by argument of the block. Any help would be appreciated

  Hello @btrex not sure I understand why the LAN module removes port B. Do you mean the LAN module uses the GPIOs normally used for port B? Anyways, if you are using an M5Core2 device this module might help. And for an M5Stack device the bus module might be helpful as it exposes all pins. Thanks Felix

  @stoni99 , yes, I have the same issue with my "picky" M5Stack. Samsung 64GB EVO plus XC Speedclass 3 are working fine, but I can no longer find it on Amazon. Sometimes Sundisk 32GB V30 are working, but in the next insert they refuse to work. Is it really the card or the software?

  Hi, About change "region": I implement the reader U107 (JRD-4035) with an USB to serial TTL UART interface (a TTL-232R-5V-PCB fron FTDI Chip) and can drive this reader with a serial terminal software as RealTerm (that supports frame of hex bytes) for simple tests (with Pyserial for a more evolved application). Then it is possible to check active "region" parameter, by send the command frame: 0xBB 0x00 0x08 0x00 0x00 0x08 0x7E. After a power On, the response is: BB 01 08 00 01 01 0B 7E corresponding to "China 900MHz" (01). We have to send the command: 0xBB 0x00 0x07 0x00 0x01 0x03 0x0B 0x7E to pass in "EU region", the reponse after the command: 0xBB 0x00 0x08 0x00 0x00 0x08 0x7E, is BB 01 08 00 01 03 0D 7E region parameter has well switched to "EU region" (03). (note: if the USB dongle is unplugged then plugged, the region parameter returns to '01') About documentation on this reader: I used this manual "https://m5stack.oss-cn-shenzhen.aliyuncs.com/resource/docs/datasheet/unit/uhf_rfid/MagicRF M100%26QM100_Firmware_manual_cn.pdf" and "translate Google tool" (the en version of the manual is not sufficient). Best, Thierry PS: the link between U107 and the FTDI interface module is: TXD/U107 to RXD/FTDI, RXD/U107 to TXD/FTDI, 5V to VCC and GND to GND.

  Hello @ajb2k3 thank you for the valuable reminder about the screen refresh rate. My above example is meant to show that it is possible to do a refresh w/o flickering even after a shutdown. Thanks Felix

  Thank you for your message. I posted my program. I got an error in the same time several times in this program. So, I measured the sensor value every 5 seconds, but I extended it every 10 seconds. I don't know if that was good, but so far it hasn't stopped for 3days. Please let me know if there is anything else you know.

  Hello @stackyarou it looks like the limiting factor is the MTU which by default is set to 23 bytes. I've tried to set a higher MTU on both sides using BLEDevice::setMTU(40);, but it did not help. I read somewhere that 23 bytes is the maximum for BLE 4.2 so maybe that is the reason? Thanks Felix

  Hello @OfureAlakhume the M5Stack M-Bus is described here and the ECG Module seems to use GPIO13, GPIO5, 5 V and GND. Thanks Felix
