Hello @alexxai

yes, that is what I meant. Setup IMU for wake on movement, then power M5PaperS3 off (which turns off everything except IMU and PMS150) and when IMU is triggered it turns M5PaperS3 on again.

Well, marketing speech isn't always crystal clear. That is why I try to distinguish between power on/off (or turn on/off) the device vs ESP32 deep and light sleep.

Thanks

Hello @pabou

granted I do not have your particular my_file.jpg, but when I run below code my M5PaperS3 does not crash.

  Widgets.setBrightness(150)
  Widgets.fillScreen(0x000000)
  Widgets.setRotation(3)
  Display.drawJpg("/flash/res/img/uiflow.jpg", 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1)

Hello @alexxai

short answer: not possible

long answer: the IMU interrupt line (INT1) is not connected to any ESP32S3 GPIO and therefore it cannot wake up ESP32S3 from deep or light sleep. See schematics here.

That said IMU interrupt line is connected to the power on / off logic (IC PMS150 via E_TRIG) so it should be able to turn on M5PaperS3.

Hello @gektron

I agree, the Execute mpy code block is a bit hidden in UIFlow2. But as I said before you can find it in System:

Thanks
Felix

Hello @gektron

until this gets fixed you could try to use an Execute mpy code block instead with the correct micropython code in it. This block is located under System.

Hello @Krmiller

I found another example using SDIO (instead of SPI) which works for me. You can find the correct GPIOs here - section: microSD SDIO mode.

Thanks
Felix

Hello @Krmiller

I tried talking to the SD card on my M5Tab5 using Arduino myself but without any luck.

I think that maybe the Arduino SD library isn't ready (yet) for the ESP32-P4 in M5Tab5. See here - ESP32-P4 is not listed.

Hi guys

have you tried the RGB module in Hardware? Works fine for me.

I created an example using an M5Atom to control 10 SK6812 RGB LEDs. You can find it in the UIFlow2 Project Zone: M5Atom_RGB_Test_UiFlow2.3.3

Thanks

Hello @kimtommy

hmm, works for me. Tested both: power off and deep sleep.

I created an example which might help you. You can find it in the UIFlow2 Project Zone: M5CoreInk_PowerOff_DeepSleep_Test_UIFlow2.3.2

Hello @GermanSheepDog

below is an alternative function which works for me too:

#define PI4IOE5V6408_ADDR 0x43
#define OUTPUT_REG 0x05

void my_set_backlight(bool o) {
  uint8_t data = M5.In_I2C.readRegister8(PI4IOE5V6408_ADDR, OUTPUT_REG, 200000);
  if(o == true) data |= 0b10000000;
  else data &= ~0b10000000;
  M5.In_I2C.writeRegister8(PI4IOE5V6408_ADDR, OUTPUT_REG, data, 200000);
}

Thanks
Felix

Hello @GermanSheepDog

your my_set_backlight() function works for me and my_set_backlight(true) turns the backlight off (inverted logic).

void my_set_backlight(bool o) {
  PI4IOE5V6408_Class p;
  // false input, true output
  p.setDirection(7, true);
  // false off, true on ?
  p.digitalWrite(7, o);
}
void setup()
{
  auto cfg = M5.config();
  cfg.serial_baudrate = 115200;
  M5.begin(cfg);
  M5StamPLC.begin();
}
void loop()
{
  M5.update();
  if(M5.BtnA.wasClicked() == true)
  {
    Serial.println("BtnA clicked - backlight on");
    my_set_backlight(false);
  }
  if(M5.BtnC.wasClicked() == true)
  {
    Serial.println("BtnC clicked - backlight off");
    my_set_backlight(true);
  }
}

P.S. the AI generated code did not work for me.

Hello @clydeps

I don't know the pitch of the connector. However my M5Tab5 came with a matching cable. Maybe double-check your box?

Thanks
Felix

Hello @scroggyg

I created a Modbus example for M5Tab5 controlling an ACSSR relay. You can find it in the UIFlow Project Zone: M5Tab5_Modbus_ACSSR_Test_UIFlow2.3.1

Thanks
Felix

Hello @scroggyg

well, I think it shouldn't be too difficult to modify the PwrCAN module to provide power to SYSVIN.

BTW: the PwrCAN module schematic uses the label HPWR on the connectors and the same label is on the M5Bus. Have you actually measured the HPWR pins of the M5Bus of the PwrCAN module? Maybe they are already connected?

Note: I cannot verify this myself as I do not have a PwrCAN module.

Thanks
Felix

Hello @scroggyg

yes, either that or provide 5V via 5VIN.

Thanks
Felix

Hello @scroggyg

M5Tab5 port A is powered through a switch (U26) which when turned on lets SYS_INT5V through to SYS_EXT5VO. The switch is enabled via EXT5V_EN coming from one of the port expanders (U6).

In other words, M5Tab5 cannot be turned on via port A as initially the switch is off.

See schematic here and/or the backside of M5Tab5.

Felix

Hello @hacxx

sorry, but I do not understand why you would reply to a post three years later. It just doesn't make sense to me.

Plus an M5Atom Lite doesn't stack well with any module as it doesn't have the M5Stack bus.

Thanks
Felix

Hello guys

I think that is what I wanted to tell you guys with my previous post. The i2c driver install error, which I also get, does not prevent most of my units to work properly.

Out of all my units only two did not work and two I2C units would only work after switching the i2c speed to 400 k.

In other words I do not think the i2c driver install error matters in regard with the Tube Pressure unit, which is not an I2C unit.

@Kenzo : do you have any other units you could try with your M5Tab5? Or any other core(s) you could try the Tube Pressure unit with?

Thanks
Felix

Hello @Kenzo

I think you might have misread my post. I do not have a Tube Pressure unit so I cannot test this case, sorry.

Thanks
Felix

Hi guys

I tested M5Tab5 (running UIFlow 2.3.1) with all the units I have available and most of them worked ok.

Note: I also got the i2c driver install error, but it didn't cause I2C to actually fail.

GPIO units

• SSR - ok

I2C units (bus speed 100k)

• Env III - ok
• Env IV - ok
• ExtIO2 - ok
• Color LCD - ok
• OLED - ok
• PaHUB - Env IV - ok

I2C units (bus speed 400k)

• PbHUB - ok
• 4Relay - ok

Unit Gesture and AMeter did not work for me with either bus speed 100k or 400k. M5Tab5 seemed to hang in setup and a hard reset was required.

Thanks
Felix
