On MEGA it is pin 53 (SPI SS) and on arduino uno ot os on pin D10 , dont know what arduino are you using Hi Loki, Of course I know that the pin 53 is SPI SS on the Mega. My question is " where do you connect this pin 53 on the DMDCON??". On the DMDCON pin used and connected to the flat cable are, D...

why to change pinout? to use MEGA, i make my own DMDCON on custom PCD for mega to have correct SPI pins. Hi Loki, It is not a problem for me to use the same pins like yours, I just tried to use a pin to pin configuration for the original DMDCON. By the way could you tell me where to connect the pin...

Hello,
Is it possible to know where " #define PIN_OTHER_SPI_nCS 53 " should be connected to the DMDCON ? I don't see a free pin on this connector.

Hi in attachemnt is updated DMD.cpp + DMD.h with birghtness and split step marquee as seen in my video, use Timer1.initialize( 5100 ); it works for me withou resistor on MEGA and UNO.just copy it onto %USERPROFILE%\My documents\Arduino\libraris\ that Flickering on video is problem with phone camera...

Hi Loki and stryker,
Thanks both for the information.
I will update my Lib and DMDCON.

Hi Stryker,
Ok, I have seen the post at the start of this thread.
I have purchased my DMD 2 weeks ago, but there are no resistor on the DMDCON.
On Freetronic site, there are no Resistor on the DMDCON connector drawing pdf.
Is it possible to update the drawing.

Hi Loki,
Could you tell me how to do that...
thanks in advance
