NodeMCU with WaveShare ePaper Display won't boot
Posted: Wed Aug 01, 2018 3:00 pm
Hi,
I'm new here and have a question
I have connected the WaveShare 1.54" ePaper Display to a ESP-12F (NodeMCU) according to the schematic.
BUSY->D6(MISO), RST->D4, DC->D3, CS->D8(SS), CLK->D5(SCK), DIN->D7(MOSI), GND->GNG, 3.3V->3.3V
My sample code(see below) only works, if I disconnect pin D8 (CS) during startup of the Board (after pressing Reset) and reconnect it afterwards. If I leave it connected and try to reset the board, I only get
in the Serial Monitor. What could be the problem here? I already tried a beefy power supply, but that doesn't make any difference. Maybe you can help me
Here is the Code:
