Digital dashboard with TM1638 and Arduino Nano v3

[tronicgr]

Thanos tutorial doesn't include working buttons, so it won't do anything when you press them.

There is a new code with working buttons here:
X-sim3 Digital Dashboard v2

Just didn't had much time to actually post it here yet

Thanks Thanos, if only you posted this earlier, you could save me a lot of pain
But it's ok, I've actually learned something by myself, it's better but harder way

Hi Guy's ,

A little bit news from my dashboard.I fixed it on a aluminium plate.My goal is to make a aluminium cover and windows for digits and leds.
As Prodigy wrote I had to solder all the wiring behind the board (see photo attached) to achieve my further finishing.

And finally a video when testing it with the new 6dof xsim plugin.



Edit 4/06:

I just add a picture from the back .You can watch the arduino nano and the decoder for the big digit.

Thanos that's great what you're doing! first sorry for my bad english.
Now my question: Is it possible to recreate a Nascar cockpit with oil / water / temp / volt. I drive iRacing Nascar (Oval) but this is too expensive Controller Pro-Gauge

I would have liked to

Is it possible to display lap times on the board? I was searching for that before but couldn't find in what effect number does Xsim store that data

Hi friends, I just received my stuff, but it have been impossible to get my PC recognize the nano v3 I installed Chinese drivers arduino drivers tried several USB cables, different is PC ports and nothing works, I just cant get it recognised as hardware. Please help

If you don't see a com port installed, that means they have been using counterfeit FT232RL chip on the Nano... It happened to me before. I had to return it to them.

If you still see the com port but the programming is failing, you might need to reprogram the arduino bootloader on your arduino nano, as what it happens is they ship it with wrong fuses... Google about it and how it can be fixed.

Thanks
Thanos
