Trouble with Seeed Studio Touch Shield

Former Member
Former Member over 11 years ago

I just got a Seeed Studio Touch Shield v1.0. After downloading the library from here:https://github.com/adafruit/Touch-Screen-Library

I opened the example code and ran it. The serial input is gave said this:

X = 1023Y = 0Pressure = 190
X = 1023Y = 0Pressure = 190
X = 1023Y = 0Pressure = 139
X = 1023Y = 0Pressure = 217
X = 1023Y = 0Pressure = 190
X = 1023Y = 0Pressure = 190
X = 1023Y = 0Pressure = 239
X = 1023Y = 0Pressure = 190
X = 1023Y = 0Pressure = 239
X = 1023Y = 0Pressure = 266
X = 1023Y = 0Pressure = 209

despite where i put my finger. The first part of the code defines a library: #include <stdint.h> but the library does not change color

nor does it make a difference when I delete it. I believe this is connected to my problem. I have tried reinstalling the library many times

but it does not seem to make a difference. Thanks so much to who ever can help me with this.

    can you confirm and or provide a diagram as to how you have everything connected up, Picture or hand drawn, either would be good

    When you install libraries you need to restart the IDE.

    (the libraries are read at startup).

    You seem to be able to open the example, and you haven't said it doesn't compile, so we can assume that bit is right.

     

    BUT

    Why are you using the adafruit library when you purchased the Seeedstudio unit.

    This is the library you should be using.

    https://github.com/Seeed-Studio/TFT_Touch_Shield_V1

     

     

    Please try this and see if you get the right results.
