Screen designer and EVE3-70G-BLM-TPC-F32

Post by raffaeler »

Hello, I have a EVE3-70G-BLM-TPC-F32 which I successfully interfaced (with a lot of pain) with an ESP32.
I am tempted to use the EVE Screen Designer (4.15.1.0) but I don't see this display in the list of devices.
It is really very confusing to me.

What device should I specify?
Since the display is not interfaced with the PC, does it make sense to use the the screen designer?

Thank you

Hello Raffaeler,

Thank you for posting on the forum.

Please check out configuration guide here: viewtopic.php?f=45&t=6837
Please note that since EVE Screen Designer has been updated, some of the guidelines may not be at the same path as described.

For your EVE3-70G-BLM-TPC-F32, you will need a USB bridge to connect to the PC:

Hi Raquel, thank you for your answer.
Both links at the beginning of that article are broken.
As I said, I am using the 4.15.1 that I found at https://brtchip.com/toolchains/

In the article the section talking about the capactivive screen (like the one I have) is wrong. There is no "EVE_SCREEN_RESISTIVE" in that file nor in any other file of that directory.
I still can't see in the designer the mode/configuration for the display we bought and any information on the website is very confusing.
All of this is very disappointing.
Can you point me to some updated documentation to make this display work properly please?

This is what I get. There are no obvious equivalent in the util.c file or the related includes.

C:/Users/Public/Documents/EVE Screen Designer/Libraries/FT_Eve_Hal/EVE_Util.c:1075: error: 'REG_CYA_TOUCH' undeclared
tcc: error: undefined symbol 'EVE_Util_forceFault'
tcc: error: undefined symbol 'EVE_Util_emulatorDefaults'
tcc: error: undefined symbol 'EVE_Util_emulatorFlashDefaults'
tcc: error: undefined symbol 'EVE_Util_bootupConfig'
tcc: error: undefined symbol 'EVE_Util_resetCoprocessor'

Could you please write down the exact changes to do?
