1 / 2
Start Visuino as shown in the first picture Click on the "Tools" button on the Arduino component (Picture 1) in Visuino When the dialog appears, select "Arduino UNO" as shown on Picture 2
Step 4: In Visuino Add Components1 / 3
- Add "Debounce Button" component
- Add "Toggle(T) Flip-Flop" component
- Add "OLED I2C" component
1 / 4
- Select "DisplayOLED1" and in the properties window select "Power On" and click on the pin icon and select "Boolean SinkPin"
- Double click on the "DisplayOLED1" and in the "Elements" window drag "Draw Text" to the left and in the properties window set "Text" to ARDUINO and "Size" to 3
- Close the "Elements" window
- Select "TFlipFlop1 and in the properties window set "Initial Value" to False
- Connect Arduino digital pin[4] to "Button1" pin [In]
- Connect "Button1" pin [Out] to "TFlipFlop1" pin [Clock]
- Connect "TFlipFlop1" pin [Out] to "DisplayOLED1" pin [Power On]
- Connect "DisplayOLED1" pin I2C [Out] to Arduino pin I2C [In]
In Visuino, at the bottom click on the "Build" Tab, make sure the correct port is selected, then click on the "Compile/Build and Upload" button.
Step 8: PlayIf you power the Arduino module, The Display will show the Text, if you press the button, the Display will Turn On or Off.
