Noritake_VFD_GU7000_LargeTextDemo

Noritake_VFD_GU7000_LargeTextDemo demonstrates how to use the Noritake_VFD_GU7000 code library to change the font size on the Noritake GU-7000 Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) modules.

This project displays 1x1 in the normal sized font, 2x2 in a font that is twice as wide and twice as tall, and 3x2 in a font that is three times as wide and twice as tall.

NOTE: This demo requires Noritake_VFD_GU7000 code library. Please download the latest version before use.

Noritake_VFD_GU7000_ImageDemo

Noritake_VFD_GU7000_ImageDemo demonstrates how to use the Noritake_VFD_GU7000 code library to display bitmap images on the Noritake GU-7000 Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) modules.

This project displays an antenna icon on the screen. This demonstration will store the image in the FlashRom of the VFD module. To confirm if your VFD module is applicable, refer to the specification.

NOTE: This demo requires Noritake_VFD_GU7000 code library. Please download the latest version before use.

Noritake_VFD_CUY_MenuDemo

The Noritake_VFD_CUY_MenuDemo demonstrates how to make a menu for the CU-Y VFD modules.

This project creates a menu screen showing 5 categories: PRESSURE, RPM, MAX FLOW, TOTAL TIME, and CURRENT. The currently selected category will be brighter and underlined.

This code works with 24x6, 24x4, and 22x4 character format.

NOTE: This demo requires Noritake_VFD_CUY code library. Please download the latest version before use.
