4.1 E-Paper Display Characteristics

The 4.7-inch E-Paper display has specific characteristics:

• Due to the flexible nature of the screen, small bubbles may be present in the corners during fitting. This is a normal manufacturing characteristic.
• This version of the E-Paper screen may exhibit a slight yellowish tint.
• Partial refresh of the screen for extended periods can result in residual images (ghosting).

5. الإعداد

To begin using your LILYGO T5-4.7-S3 board, follow these setup steps:

1. توصيل الطاقة: Connect the board to a computer using a USB-C cable. The board will power on.
2. Initial Firmware Check: The board typically comes with factory test firmware. If the screen displays content, the hardware is likely functioning correctly.
3. تثبيت برامج التشغيل: Ensure your computer has the necessary USB-to-serial drivers for ESP32-S3 devices. These are usually automatically installed or can be found on the Espressif webموقع.
4. تجهيز بيئة التطوير: Install your preferred programming environment (Arduino IDE, VS Code with PlatformIO, or MicroPython). Refer to the official LILYGO GitHub repository for detailed setup instructions and exampليه: github.com/Xinyuan-LilyGO/LilyGo-EPD47/tree/esp32s3.

5.1 تحديث البرامج الثابتة

To upload new firmware or examples, you will need to put the board into DFU (Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:

1. Connect the board to your computer via the USB-C cable.
2. اضغط مع الاستمرار على الحذاء زر.
3. بينما لا يزال يحمل الحذاء button, briefly press the ر.س.ت زر.
4. أطلق سراح ر.س.ت زر.
5. أطلق سراح الحذاء زر.
6. The board is now in DFU mode and ready for firmware upload via your chosen development environment.

6. تعليمات التشغيل

Once firmware is loaded, the operation of the LILYGO T5-4.7-S3 will depend on the specific application programmed onto it. Generally, interaction will be via the 4.7-inch touchscreen.

• شاشة تعمل باللمس: Navigate menus and interact with applications by tapping or swiping on the capacitive touchscreen.
• أزرار: The board may include physical buttons (e.g., RST, BOOT) that can be programmed for specific functions within your application.
• بطاقة SD: Insert a microSD card into the slot for data storage or loading assets for your applications, such as maps or images.
• يو اس بي سي: Use the USB-C port for power, data transfer, and debugging.

6.1 مثالample Application: Mesh Networking

The ESP32-S3's wireless capabilities can be utilized for mesh networking, allowing devices to communicate without traditional internet infrastructure. This is particularly useful in off-grid or emergency situations.

7. Programming Environment

The LILYGO T5-4.7-S3 board supports several popular programming environments:

• بيئة التطوير المتكاملة Arduino: A user-friendly environment for beginners and experienced developers.
• VS Code (PlatformIO): A powerful and flexible environment for professional development.
