2. SETUP OF THE DISPLAY INTERFACE
The display can be controlled in 4 dierent ways, via I2C, SPI, 8-bit paral-
lel 6800 interface and 8-bit parallel 8080 interface.
The display is delivered pre-configured for control via SPI. If you want to
use one of the other control methods, you have to re-solder the resistors
BS1 and BS2 on the back of the board.
In the table, you can see how the resistors must be set for the respective
mode.
6800-parallel 8080-parallel I2C SPI
BS1 0110
BS2 1100
3. USE WITH AN ARDUINO
As the display works with a 3V logic level and most Arduinos with 5V, we
use an Arduino Pro Mini 3.3V in this example.
If you want to use an Arduino with a 5V logic level, such as an Arduino
Uno, you have to reduce all data lines leading from the Arduino to the dis-
play from 5V to 3.3V with a logic level converter.
First you need to install the required library in your Arduino IDE.
To do this, go to Tools -> Manage Libraries... Search for u8g2 and install
the library U8g2 by oliver

Now open the GraphicTest code sample of the library.
To do this, click on:
File -> Examples -> U8g2 -> u8x8-> GraphicTest
Now insert the following constructor for the display into the programme,
as shown in the picture below:
U8X8_SSD1309_128X64_NONAME2_4W_SW_SPI u8x8(13, 11, 10, 9, 8);
Now you can upload the example to your Arduino.

4. USE WITH THE RASPBERRY PI
First, we install the library and download the sample files, this is done
with the following commands:
To make using the display with the Raspberry Pi particularly easy, we use
the luma.oled library.
You can install the dependencies required for installation with the follo-
wing commands:
There you can now activate SPI and I2C under 3 Interface Options so
that you can use both interfaces.
Now enter the following command in the terminal:
Next, you must give the user (in this case "pi") permission to access the
required hardware. If you are not using the user "pi", change the user at
the end of the command accordingly.
sudo -H pip3 install --upgrade luma.oled
sudo git clone https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.examples.git
sudo raspi-config
sudo usermod -a -G spi,gpio,i2c pi
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git python3 python3-dev python3-pip

sudo reboot
Then restart your Raspberry Pi with the following command:
Aer the reboot, enter following command into the terminal:
