Hi at all,

My configuration is composite of three Arduino (1 Arduino Uno, 2 Arduino Mega 2560) for the games ATS and ETS2, at the Arduino Uno I have connected a LCD 20x4 with IC2.This LCD I use for information type PSI, Temperature, Time Sleep and other information.
I have configurate the LCD (attached image) and configured the button of keyboard (I have activate the plugin) but not see next screen because the second module of LCD is setting at Arduino Mega.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

Best regards

Claudio

Hi,
I have understood how to.
I did not understand that the option into multiple configuration it referred at the quantity of modules associated at the Arduino board.
Thanks
Best regards
Claudio

Hi,
Not saved the modify into configuration.
With Arduino board connected I have try click into button "Applay Changes", change the field "7 segment mod." to value 2, and when the board is reconnected the value came back 1.
I have try also deconncted the board, I have change the field at value 2, clicked up button "Applay change", reconnected the board but the field came back to value 1.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Best regards

@Wotever

Dear Mr. Wotever,
There is a procedure for make correctly the association of board Arduino and the number of "7 segment mod." for LCD 20x4?
In wiki I have found only the procedure of how to recognised the board.
Thanks
Best regards.

Claudio

Hi !

I will check in theory the lcd should count as one 7 segment display so if you have 2 seven segments and one lcd it will show 3 7segments modules.
If the modules are mixing up it's likely to be caused to wrong multiple arduino setup (using the same name at upload instead of using a unique name for each device) in the case simhub will try to update the definitions of the boards but it will get mixed.
