Digital dashboard with TM1638 and Arduino Nano v3

[KyriakosCY]

Hi Guys, great thread with loads of info. I have just received all the stuff from DX and I'm in the process of setting it all up. Quick question: what do I need to change in the code to be able to use the display with the shift lights (led's) above the screen and the data below (essentially upside-down)..?

Any help is much appreciated! Cheers.

Another small issue i'm having is with Dirt3 the RPM's are not synchronised and the All-Red Shift lights do not collectively light up even when i'm on the rev limiter. I managed to get it working to a "certain degree" by removing the rpm multiplier but it does not seem to work with the rally cars. There is a brief youtube video showing a similar setup but i'm not sure how to work it out.

BTW My Code is as follows:

Code: Select all

rpmmax = (rpmmax * 100);

Thanks again!

Very thank Tronicgr for your projects, It's very useful for me and others . Here is my solution to make my own dashboard:D

Gear, Speed, RPM all in one Nano .

Hello everyone I'm passionate to the Arduino world my name is Giuseppe me I understand a little but in return I have a great desire to learn and a lot of manual work.
I come to the point I'm making a gear indicator for a simulator that will be connected to a software and synchronized to a game.
I found a guide and explained how to do it in this guide used a 7-segment common cathode.
At home I had a nice big 7-segment common anode but that wants to supply 6v (Arduino is 5v)
How can I feed my seven segments externally?
I tried but the display flashes it moves randomly and so on.
For the project I used an Arduino Nano a 74HC595 and a 7-segment common anode to 6V precisely SA18-11EWA.
I post the link you can tell me what I did wrong?
thank you

hello to everyone I also built myself a display with tm1638 module works well with rfactor1 but with no rFactor2 into play for example are neutral but in xsim data is first gear might be a plugin problem? there could be a solution to this thanks

can´t get this to work, display shows only *n* is here a tutorial for setup in xsim software?

hello I solved using a different software, it works with many games
