thank you for your open source spirit.
I’m a student from china,when i saw this project in instructables,I was deeply attracted by it.and very excited to try to do a weather station,and few days latter,i’m done,but the display can not display the weather data in my city.as far as I know the wunderground API seems not services for china’s city.what should I do？and it has another API to solve the problem?
I’m glad you can reply，thank you very much.

Your latest software update 1.1.2 has been updated on my Arduino IDE, but then it requests another update, so I downgrade to 1.1.1 and then it requests an update and every time I start the IDE it keeps requesting an update to 1.1.2 even if it ha bene updated. Is that your end or the Arduino Team?
Dave

Some of the functions are declared void some not, when no return value is required, I recommend they are checked for consistency.

i have found a solution that work for me but i dont know what is going false here. In the function “bool drawFrame1” i have to add “return true;” at the end. Then it works correctly. But why? Is this a really a bug? I work with your latest Code showing up in Arduino IDE

Hi Thomas. Sorry for the long response time. I didn’t see your comment until now. Hm, I have no clue. Which version of the library are you using? The time is recalculated with every call of drawFrame based on the internal timer… Do the other frames show up correctly?

first thanks for this amazing project! I have found a bug: i´ve installed all librarys etc. as you discriped in your post. All works fine, but the time in frame1 is not ticking sec. by sec. it shows xx seconds an for the frame time (5s) nothing happends. The time (seconds) ist standing still. But when the frame changes to frame2 the time is updating and shows the actuall seconds to the time.

i have arduino 1.6.5, with nodeMCU v1.0 and the ssd1306 display.

Any idea? How can i debug this issue?

I already open a ticket on github for this issues.

Thanks and greetigs

Thomas

I have a separate question regarding the time library function. Here in Sydney we have UTC+10 in the winter and +11 in the summer – it doesn't look like the function can cope with this seasonal change, or can it?

This latest updates overtake my humble changes (I added a DHT22 to your earlier version). I also managed to update your SSD1306 library to allow me to use a SH1106 (1.3")based display. I only had to change this function in the file "SSD1306.cpp" to…..

==================================================

void SSD1306::display(void) {

for (uint8_t k=0; k<8; k++)
{
sendCommand(0xB0+k);//set page addressSSD_Data_Mode;
sendCommand(0x02) ;//set lower column address
sendCommand(0x10) ;//set higher column address

for (uint16_t i=0; i< 128; i++) {
// send a bunch of data in one xmission
//Wire.begin(mySda, mySdc);
Wire.beginTransmission(myI2cAddress);
Wire.write(0x40);
for (uint8_t x=0; x<16; x++) {
Wire.write(buffer[128*k+i]);
i++;
}
i–;
yield();
Wire.endTransmission();
}
}
}

========================================

I also renamed a few files to preserve the original library.

Simon

If I disable every call to the time functions I can run it. I do like this project and it has great promise.

I have tried v 1.01 and 1.02 of the new example and i get an error when running.

Exception (28):
epc1=0x4000df60 epc2=0x00000000 epc3=0x00000000 excvaddr=0x00000000 depc=0x00000000
