VGA Example Problem - can't find Adafruit_GFX.h

Recommended Posts

I've got a Papilio Duo with a Logic Start shield.

 

In DesignLab 1.0.4, I selected ZPUino_VGA_Adapter, and then edited the source so that it corresponded to Duo + Logic Start Shield, commenting out the other options.

 

However, it now says

 

Build options changed, rebuilding all
Demo.ino:32:26: fatal error: Adafruit_GFX.h: No such file or directory
 
I guess this is a simple fix: how do I proceed?
 
Thanks!

OK, I fixed that by downloading the Adafruit =GFX library and putting it in the libraries folder, but now I am getting

 

Demo.ino:33:24: fatal error: ZPUino_GFX.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
 
Seems like some needed files are not included with DesignLab 1.0.4.
 
Hopefully they can be included in the next release...

Hello Ralph,

 

I think the most likely culprit here is that the wrong board is being selected. Please verify that you have gone to Tools/board/Papilio FPGA boards and selected the Papilio DUO FPGA 2MB - ZPUino or the 512KB version.

 

Then it should be able to find the correct libraries - those libraries are specific to the ZPUino board types. You can verify that the libraries are there by going to your designlab root directory then hardware\zpuino\zpu20\libraries

 

Jack.

Thanks, Jack. I was selecting Papilio Duo - AVR instead of Papilio Duo FPGA 2MB. 

I've also selected the COM port.

Now that I have fixed that, however I get a different problem

 

Cannot get programmer version, aborting

 
Could not contact ZPUino embedded programmer.
The more common reasons for this are:
 
a) You are not specifying the correct port. The port currently selected is 'COM15'
B) The board FPGA is not programmed with a valid ZPUino bitfile.
c) The board is properly not powered.
 
Please review all of above, if problem persists please contact support.

OK, forgot to upload the circuit before trying to load the AVR program. All is well now (well, 90% - my monitor is displaying not supported, but otherwise, basically drawing most of the input with some off-screen). Anyway, it's basically working thanks.

It's some cheap non-branded monitor that doesn't like what it considers to be non-standard refresh rates. Anyway, it all works at 640 x 384 x 60.

 

Just one question - if 1024 x 768 x 60 is not possible with a DUO, is there any chance that 1024 x 768 x 30 could work?

 

A higher resolution with a lower refresh rate would be handy.
