@felmue Works for me too!
I never thought of that for StickCPlus2 !!!
Thanks

I have a new StickCPlus2 that I want to dim or turn off the display backlight.
The old StickCPlus breathe does not work of course because the power system is very different.
I see that the schematic and the pin map say Output 27 is TFT_BL, but I cannot get either On or Off to turn off the backlight.
What am I doing wrong!!??
Thanks, Terry

@shinshin8 You must ignore that the Arduino IDE reports lilygo boards and select your own Core from the drop down. The IDE is just trying to be helpful, but is always wrong, just ignore it and select the correct board from the drop down list in the little window here:

Also questions:
Are you using this example:
https://github.com/m5stack/M5Unit-ReflectiveIR/blob/main/examples/detect.ino?

Have you tried adjusting the sensitivity trim pot full scale, CW, CCW?

Your hand may not reflect enough IR.

The output is active low, so you should see 0Vdc when a reflective object is in the path. ADC will output 0 digital, Off as well.

@shinshin8 said in M5Stack Reflective IR Sensor Always Reads 0:

Board: LilyGO T-Display (ESP32-D0WDQ6-V3)

What do you mean 'Board: LilyGO T-Display (ESP32-D0WDQ6-V3)'
What version of Arduino IDE are you using?
Are you using this example:

Later edit:
Is the IR LED turned on?
You can use a phone camera to observe near IR.
Have you tried adjusting the sensitivity trim pot full scale, CW, CCW?
Your hand may not reflect enough IR.
The output is active low, so you should see 0Vdc when a reflective object is in the path. ADC 0Vdc as well.

@Snyder_br
Yes.
Bottom of the docs:

@Ricardo_Caldas88 Why would you want to interfere with communications,

which is illegal?

The short distance is excellent for pentesting your own hyome/business system and that's it.

@Blimzle @Cairnus Hey guys sounds great, I would also like to be able to edit the many STM controllers as well.
Keep us posted!
Cheers, Terry

@Cairnus @Blimzle
Do you guys have the means to edit STM firmware?

@lewissykes The Factory Demo is here:
https://github.com/m5stack/M5AtomS3-UserDemo/blob/atoms3r/platforms/atoms3r/main/hal_atom_s3r/utils/bmi270/src/bmi270.cpp
But written in C, C++ for ESP-IDF...
The Arduino versions, here:
https://github.com/m5stack/M5AtomS3/blob/main/examples/Basics/imu/imu.ino
Which I see say AtomS3, not 'R' but the

#include <M5Unified.h>

and the correct board definition, may make the mag values present.
But only the 'slick' Users Demo will be that refined and cool.

@Kabron It was a friendly 'btw'.
There is not a bug or a problem.
It works fine for me on 2.3.4.
Relax and use the version you prefer.

@Kabron, I wish Arduino did not offer M5Stack Boards, when M5Stack official offers up to date board definitions.
Just use M5Stack!
I have 'one-of-everything' M5Stack boards and many, many projects later, I'm happy.

BTW:
What version of Arduino IDE are you using?

Everybody:

Bruce is Hacking software like Nemo and Marauder, a Flipper Zero wannabe?

Don't install this software.

@kaidencoolkid Did you know that Bruce is Hacking software like Nemo and Marauder, a Flipper Zero wannabe?

Don't install this software.

@erkel Well, seeing as how you are not connecting it to a M5Stack product, but a RPi, what library (driver) are you using?
Also: What language are you programming it in?

@ajb2k3 FYI I had that problem when m5Stack switched over to CH9102F which I could not get to run on my earlier Intel Mac.
Like you said: 'trouble due to osx security'
But my new M1 Mac it worked out of the box.
Cheers

@louisandthecat ESP32-S3FN8 8 MB (Quad SPI), so 8MB flash program storage. no other PSRAM.
UIFlow/Python uses a lot of memory.
That's all I have!
Cheers.

@Arn_8 I am not familiar with this camera or AI. Have you been able to connect to it and read it?
The Pi would need SoftwareSerial UART and I suppose some app on the Pi to interpret the results.
I assume you have been to this site?
https://github.com/m5stack/M5-ProductExampleCodes/blob/master/App/UnitV/track_ball/track_ball.ino
Hope this helps!

@Arn_8 There are a surprising number on UnitV products, what is the part number?
Such as U-nnn.

@mhuis M5Stack uses 5V on the grove cable to cover all bases!
Most sensors today are 3.3V, but if one is still 5V, it will work.
Then any M5Stack brand sensors will have a step down power converter to it's internal 3.3v requirement.
The I2C is 3.3v.
The 8 Encoder is 3.3v. on the inside (STM microcontroller).
No logic level converter is needed.

@m5_pls2_2 M5Stack products contain the universal ESP32 and any module for ESP32 or Arduino will work as long as there is an Arduino IDE or esp32 library available.
Brands like Sparkfun, Adafruit, SeeedStudio should work.
Hope this helps!
