11x7 pixels of single-colour, brightness-controlled, message scrolling goodness!
We've created an easy installation script that will install all pre-requisites and get your 11x7 LED Matrix Breakout up and running with minimal efforts. To run it, fire up Terminal which you'll find in Menu -> Accessories -> Terminal on your Raspberry Pi desktop, as illustrated below:
In the new terminal window type the command exactly as it appears below (check for typos) and follow the on-screen instructions:
curl https://get.pimoroni.com/matrix11x7 | bash
If you choose to download examples you'll find them in /home/pi/Pimoroni/matrix11x7/
.
sudo pip3 install matrix11x7
sudo pip2 install matrix11x7
If you want to contribute, or like living on the edge of your seat by having the latest code, you should clone this repository, cd
to the library directory, and run:
sudo python3 setup.py install
(or sudo python setup.py install
whichever your primary Python environment may be)
In all cases you will have to enable the i2c bus.
