Hello
I’ve attached a Pico to the display and installed/flashed MicroPython
pico-v1.25.0-pimoroni-micropython.uf2 from Releases · pimoroni/pimoroni-pico · GitHub, which I believe is meant to support this display. The installation went fine ,but only the green light shows when powered on and the screen stays blank. I am a total noob at this, so I’m not sure whether it’s me or the display. NB. I haven’t cut the board where it says LED CUT RGB. Any help would be appreciated. Would it be possible to link me to several other .uf2 files to test this screen. Many Thanks Mr T Sarris
The display won’t do anything until you run code on it telling it to do something.
Try one of these examples, and report back.
pimoroni-pico/micropython/examples/pico_display at main · pimoroni/pimoroni-pico
The RGB LED being on is normal, you have to run code to turn it completely off, or set a color.
from pimoroni import RGBLED
led = RGBLED(26, 27, 28)
led.set_rgb(0, 0, 0)
Many Thanks, I installed Thonny and got it working :)
