Yes, it works. I had had it, but didn't like the glossy surface because of the reflections. I returned it and went for the 9.7", which has a more paperlike appearance https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/9.7inch_e-Paper_HAT It is not well documented, but you must scan the datasheet "e-Paper Specification" (PDF) of these displays for the keywords "Antiglare hard-coated front-surface". It either has got it or it doesn't. https://www.waveshare.com/w/upload/f/ff/9.7inch_E-paper_Specification.PDF |
I tried it but get the error
Any idea? |
Hmm. Does the example code from Waveshare (e.g. here) run OK? If it doesn't, it's probably a hardware thing (did you set the switches on the board to use SPI for communication?). If that code does work, then maybe try adjusting the SPI frequency (see the README). Perhaps the default value is too high for your device. |
I got it working but not clear how. Is it possible to leave the display in a non-working state from using |
huh. yeah, I have found in the past that sometimes using it with another display driver can cause problems. in particular, if you use code that communicates with the device via the |
