Do-it-yourself electronic device "running line"





In this article, the author will tell us in detail how to make electronic creeping line device. The device runs on the popular Arduino platform and is easy to repeat.

So, for the manufacture of an electronic device will need the following

Materials and tools:
Milling cutter;
- Cordless drill;
-Electric jigsaw;
-Clips;
- Clamps;
- Jigsaw;
-Roulette;
-Knife;
-Rule;
-Glue gun;
-Multimeter;
-Soldering accessories;
-Nippers;
- "Third hand";
-Stripper;
- Plywood 6 mm;
-Screws;
- Joiner's glue;
-Oil;
Epoxy resin;
-Izolenta;
-Sandpaper;
-Silicone legs;
-Arduino Nano;
- LED matrix 8X8 - 2 pcs;
-Protected lithium-ion battery 18650;
-Battery holder;

-Switch;
-Bread board;
-Wire;
Step One: The Case
From plywood cuts the details of the body.




Glues parts.




Cuts a window for a matrix.




Fits to size.




Step two: voltage adjustment
Pre-assembled device and regulates voltage board. The output voltage on the board should not be higher than 5 V.



Step Three: Software
Now moving on to the software. Loads it.
Arduino Software



Download, unzip and load the code into the "MaxMatrix" subfolder of the "Library" folder.



Further makes the setting. When you first start the software Arduino selects an Arduino type. In this case, this is Arduino Nano (1st photo). Then it opens the Serial Monitor window (2nd photo).
Selects the USB port that the Arduino is connected to.





Now the code needs to generate the code. The photo shows the compilation steps. Paste the code and press the download button - the program starts compiling and downloading the code.




In case of an error, replace the Processor "ATmega328P" with "ATmega328P (Old bootloader)"


Between the brackets, marked in red, inserts the desired text.

Changes the scroll speed.

And brightness.

A battery with a capacity of 3000 mAh at a level of 5 brightness of the display should work for more than 20 hours, at 10 - more than 14 hours and at 15 - more than 12 hours. You can also turn it on from the power supply.

Step Four: Build
Now you need to connect the two LED matrix. The master cuts the contacts and solders the wires according to the following scheme:
First display top - second display bottom
VCC - VCC
GND before - GND
DOUT to - DIN
CS to - CS
CLK to - CLK
Hot glue sticks the matrix to the window.





Drills holes and installs a switch and connector.



Installs the battery holder.



Solders to a matrix of wires and them to Arduino, according to the following scheme:
VCC - 5V
GND - GND
From DIN - D12
From CLK - D11
CS - D10
Solder wires from the voltage regulator to Arduino:
VOUT + - VIN
VOUT- - GND






Glues small bars into the body. The front panel and the back cover will rest on them.


Solder the wires to the switch and battery holder.





On a double-sided tape, glues the parts inside the case, inserts the battery into the compartment and checks the operation of the device.




Installs the front panel and back cover.




Covers the body with oil and glues the silicone legs.



All is ready.

The whole process of manufacturing an electronic device can be seen in the video.

if only three or four characters are visible at the same time
I also wanted to sneak about this, but then I thought, what if a comrade can read only "in warehouses"? Remember: M-A-M-A, mom! smile
A purely educational product that does not have practical significance: try reading the running line without tension, if only three or four characters are visible at the same time.
Add: you need to download, unzip this library, find the "MaxMatrix" file and archive this file in zip.
then add it to the IDE library

Thanks, but not with me. This is a rewrite article. And your info, I hope it will be useful to those who want to do something like that.
it is better to use 4 segments MAX7219 on one board

and the library MD. PAROLA
Cyrillic is already built in there. I wrote the Cyrillic font. it can be redone, and even drawings can be created.
here can be read.
You got a cool box.

We advise you to read:
