hi, after change have CARD, low wifi (but i have LAN connection) and time blink
What do you mean time blink? Do you mean the colon : blinks?
yes exactly : blink
That is good.
But it means that the other icons are not ordered correctly in the config file you have.
You’d have to play around with it to figure out which index each icon on your display uses.
but i don’t understand order, is the number of position or type of icon ? in example is no my combination of icons
Hello @TheCoolest
i have Kinhank G1, i want help to active 3 LED

Hello, I succesfully installed on a microsd card CE, using sc2_s905x4_4g.dtb, everything works like a charm, it’s fabolous!
The only thing not working is the display, in the system settings I tried all in the list but nothing works, display always remains like this:
88:88
Thank you!
Sorry, I followed all wiki instructions but nothing change…
Sorry but this tell us exactly nothing. No one knows what you actually did.

I downloaded these 2 files:
- t95-plus-s905x4-vfd.conf
- tanix-x4-vfd.conf
and put into /storage/.config/
Then I installed OpenVFD, but nothing change, display always 8888…
Did You rename it to vfd.conf ?

Yes, for all two files, one at time but nothing… these are my details, via ssh:

Hello, fortunately after reboot something happens, now the display is turned off. I tried to configure OpenVFD pure nothing changes, always black.

I never saw a response to this How to configure VFD - #1013 by emveepee Can the VFD work on the S928X-J at the moment current I am at
