GTT Design: Screen Tracking Example
Posted: Mon Aug 29, 2016 3:22 pm
In this example, a simple menu interface is generated and deployed to a GTT43A display using the GTT Designer Software tool.
Multiple elements are implemented in the project, allowing a user to navigate between GTT products, while also keeping track of what screen is being currently displayed. This example utilizes scripts to transition between screens, along with the echo command to return what screen is being displayed.
Arduino C was used to write the code for this example. The primary function of the code is to read the return messages whenever the GTT transitions between screens. The Arduino will then inform the user what screen is being displayed, and will update the GTT with new information when necessary.
This example demonstrates the power of the Matrix Orbital GTT series, when combined with the GTT Designer software tool, and a basic microcontroller.
