Content Provider lucky1 Posted February 25, 2023 Content Provider Share Posted February 25, 2023 First of all which PIN2DMD hardware do you have ? https://pin2dmd.com/hardware/ Does anything show up in the windows device manager when you connect the pin2dmd ? What does show up ? 5 hours ago, willyf said: I installed stm32 and when I click on connect, the same is not recognized What do you mean with stm32 ? The ST-Link utility ? To make a dump you need the pin2dmd.exe tool from my github https://github.com/lucky01/PIN2DMD/tree/master/tools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you try a different cable or a different USB port on your PC ? 1 hour ago, willyf said: hi when I try to install the driver, I don't have the line with pin2dmd offered thank you for your help Did you enable "list all devices" in options ?

willyf Posted February 26, 2023 Author Share Posted February 26, 2023 I tried several cables, I also connected to the 2 usb sockets and I activated "list all devices" but nothing worked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider lucky1 Posted February 26, 2023 Content Provider Share Posted February 26, 2023 No need to connect the other USB socket on the Nucleo. It is only used for programming. Did you change the USB port on the PC ? Did you try a different PC ? Could you make a screenshot of the Windows "Device Manager" ? Does the device manager refresh when you disconnect and connect the pin2dmd ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willyf Posted February 27, 2023 Author Share Posted February 27, 2023 hi I tested the display on another computer but it's the same: when you plug or unplug the display, nothing happens on the device manager thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rappelbox Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 because you use the wrong port, that one is only used for flashing the firmware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider lucky1 Posted February 27, 2023 Content Provider Share Posted February 27, 2023 Strange thing is that I have a group called USB-Controller which you also have named "Controleurs de bus USB" but additionally I have a group called "USB-Devices" with the same USB plug symbol which is missing in your list. Did you install the USB drivers for your motherboard from the manufacturer ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willyf Posted February 27, 2023 Author Share Posted February 27, 2023 Salut J'ai testé l'écran sur un autre ordinateur mais c'est pareil : quand on branche ou débranche l'écran, rien ne se passe sur le gestionnaire de périphériques merci Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willyf Posted February 27, 2023 Author Share Posted February 27, 2023 I haven't installed anything, these are probably updates I did new tests on my pinball machine and now when I plug in the pin2dmd, my computer rings (test 2), nothing happens during test 1 What must I do now? THANKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider lucky1 Posted February 27, 2023 Content Provider Share Posted February 27, 2023 1er Test is the correct connection You need to power your pin2dmd with 5V from a external power supply to use it. The controller is NOT powered through USB . The LED panels draw too much current ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willyf Posted February 28, 2023 Author Share Posted February 28, 2023 hi Thanks to you all for your help by plugging in as you told me, I was able to update however, I still have a problem: when I run pin2dmd.exe, I get the message here is the version I have should I install something else? thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider lucky1 Posted February 28, 2023 Content Provider Share Posted February 28, 2023 That´s a communication problem. Is the device activated ? If yes maybe downgrade the winusb driver using zadig utility and/or change the cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
