How to connect everything together properly?
Posted: Sat Aug 21, 2021 4:45 pmHello,
I am trying to assemble simple barometer with logging and LCD display but looks like using the same pins for some tasks not allowed or at least in some extend. I am using NodeMCUv3 with ESP8266 onboard, bmp280 sensor for retrieving data, ds3231 clock to be able constantly use clock with no interrupts SD card module to write data and time to the file and LCD 16x2 display to show current time and sensor data, additionally I am using telegram bot to be able access current sensor data which takes some interrupts.
I did test all modules separate with the standard code which provides along with Arduino IDE and everything is working fine until I combine many sketches in one. After many attempts to do this I have reached the point when every module works in sketch except the SD card module and looks like it is conflicting with LCD. Unfortunately I did not find the information how I can resolve the issue and there is no free pins left which I can use to avoid overlapping. The strange thing that the same overlapping pins which connected to BMP280 and DS3231 are not conflicting to each other and work ok together. On other hand LCD and SD card no. Any ideas how to fix it? Thanks.
If the "SD" part of code uncomment LCD display is starting display garbage
