Features

• Serial & SPI interface to GorillaBuiderz shields
• 4D Systems SGC interface (GB4DLcdDriver) supporting:
  • Lines
  • Simple shapes: Rectangle, Circle, Triangle
  • Drawing Text
  • Reading images from Display Module SD Card reader
  • LCD Touch support is work in progress. Refer to Issue #2
• High level graphics library (GB4DGraphics) simplifying interaction with the SGC interface by providing a number of basic graphics widgets

  • Library is a 'Drop in' replacement for existing Ethernet based sketches. Supports same class interfaces.
  • Ethernet Server is work in progress. Refer to Issue #8

Modules Included

Modules included in this library:

• GBUtils: General utilities used by other modules
• GBStatus: A basic LED status flasher
• GBIMAC: Reads the IMAC address built into every GorillaBuilderz shield
• GBTransport: Basic transport operations to communicate with different devices on a GorillaBuilderz shield. Transports include SPI, Serial and SC16 UART bridge.
• GB4DLcdDriver: 4D Systems SGC Driver to be used with an LCD Shield paired with a 4D Systems Display Module
• GB4DGraphics: Basic graphics widgets built on the GB4DLcdDriver
• GBEthernet: Support for our WiFi shield
• GBDiagnose: A suite of sketches to assist troubleshooting
