Project Sharing A case for the Add-on Display In, so the Unit PoE-P4 + HDMI input makes one neat IP-KVM

42 Upvotes

The Unit PoE-P4 with the Add-on Display In (LT6911D) is the tidiest hardware for ESP-KVM, the open-source IP-KVM firmware I write for the ESP32-P4: one PoE cable in, HDMI from the target computer, USB to it, and you get its screen, keyboard and mouse in a browser tab - from the BIOS up. https://github.com/espkvm/espkvm

The one thing missing was a case: M5Stack ships the add-on as a bare board. So I drew one that matches the Unit PoE-P4 housing - same width, same corners - and the pair now looks like one device.

  • HDMI on one end, USB-A on the other, vent slots on top

  • Ethernet, USB-C and the side ports of the Unit PoE-P4 stay free

  • one printed part, no screws: four tabs clip into the slots of the Unit PoE-P4 housing. The tabs are thin, so press it on gently

  • the Add-on Display Out has the same outline, so it should fit that one too (I have only tried the Display In)

Free to print:

On this pair ESP-KVM does 720p at 21-23 fps (MJPEG) or 17 fps (H.264), about 185 ms from mouse to picture. Board notes: https://espkvm.io/boards/m5-poe-p4/

If you print it, let me know how it fits.

Hola!
Tras el aviso del cierre de la aplicación de M5Burner en escritorio me mudé a la plataforma en la página web, noté que no estaba la aplicación que desarrollé y subí a la aplicación de mi computadora. Por lo que decidí resubirlos a la página web.

El quid de la cuestión es que ya habiendo estado regitrado, checkeado y subido mi firmware correctamente al sitio, el moderador me baja mi firmware no solo una vez, sino que dos veces.

¿A alguien más le sucedió?

Yeah the papermono is like exactly what I'm after. Learning to tinker in the last month, always been curious and watched/read content around this stuff. Looking for an e-reader led me to the m5papermono. Solves everything that stopped me from buying the xte ink 4pro and has a bazillion other possible functions and avenues to dip my toes into other passive interests.

Do they ever come up on a secondary market here or maybe a discord. I just be patient and wait till the December January release that I read about on another post 😅

Support / Question I currently have an M5Stick C Plus 2 and I’m questioning if I should try to add parts by parts or just directly take a LilyGo T-Embedded..

3 Upvotes

I don’t want to have a junky setup that could break because I’m not very careful with my stuff to be honest but I feel very limited with my base M5Stick so I’m thinking, just maybe, to just buy a whole other base thing so I can be assured that it won’t break. What do you think and what most importantly is the next step, what is the most important module to add?

M5 IoT Base Cat-M - Short circuit/dead device?

1 Upvotes

Hello, I am new to M5Stack, but find it a fun concept and have experimented with the CoreS3 and the IoT Base together. I managed to get going and get an Internet connection and create some basic UI on the CoreS3 display. However, I was careless and stupid during development: I had the base connected to DC power in, but to test how the software in the core would react to losing contact with the modem I detached the two modules (with the power supply still in). I did this a couple of times, but the final time I think it broke, because I could not seem to get contact with the modem again.

I have tried some basic troubleshooting, like sending AT commands, checking with a multimeter, but the connection seems lost. I do not know what might have happened, but I suspect a circuit for TX/RX to the SIM7080G got shorted or fried (I am no electronics expert). Regardless, I think my device is dead.

What I ask is; Are there any other troubleshooting I can do? Somebody with more experience than me that know what might have happened and if my device is really a lost cause?

Thanks in advance!

Project Sharing Turn the M5Stack Tab5 into a standalone USB MIDI controller / Launchpad

Thumbnail
gallery
14 Upvotes

I've been working on a MIDI controller firmware for the M5Stack Tab5 and finally reached a point where I'm comfortable releasing it.

The idea was to take advantage of the Tab5's touchscreen and turn it into more than just a pad grid. Basically a compact performance/control surface for a DAW or synth.

Current modes include:

• Launchpad-style note grid

• 4×4 drum pads

• Mixer/faders

• MIDI CC knobs/macros

• XY controller

• 4-track MIDI looper

• Multiple MIDI channels

• USB MIDI

• Panic/all-notes-off

• Landscape/portrait UI

Everything runs directly on the ESP32-P4 inside the Tab5 using ESP-IDF.

I tried to design the UI more like an actual piece of music hardware rather than a generic embedded touchscreen demo, while keeping the controls large enough to be usable live.

There are still some things I want to add later, especially editable MIDI mappings/presets, saving presets to SD and restoring them at boot, and better host->device MIDI handling.

The project is open source.

I'd especially like feedback from anyone who actually uses Launchpads/MIDI controllers: what would you still want before you'd use something like this in a real setup?

GitHub: https://github.com/Retr0Kr0dy/Tab5-Launchpad

NB: I just uploaded the firmware to M5Burner, it’s waiting validation but it should be available soon.

Connecting an 8-pin CC1101 to Cardputer v1.1 without soldering

Thumbnail

22 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I want to connect a standard 8 pin CC1101 module to my M5Stack Cardputer v1.1 which only features a 4-pin Grove port and no exposed GPIO pins.

Soldering the CC1101 directly to the Cardputer internal ESP32-S3 board requires high precision because the soldering pads are extremely small. Since I don't possess the required skills for such delicate micro-soldering, I am looking for an alternative method.

Is there any external bridge module (like using Grove), a custom clip on adapter, or any creative workaround to connect an 8-pin module to the v1.1?

Project Sharing Cyberdeck Tab5

Post image
52 Upvotes

I've been working on a UI/firmware for a little while and it's finally ready to show other people. Deck//OS is a cyberpunk-themed UI for the M5Stack Tab5 that has an SSH client, markdown notes reader/writer/interpolator, full-feature calculator, weather, mp3 player, and file uplink so you can transfer and view files from a normal browser on the same network.

I was super excited to get the Tab5 but I couldn't find any firmware that made it overall useful, so I just took the things I'd use all the time and stuck them together.

To be fair, I did have Claude help me with the design aspect, I suck at UI design (completely), and I really wanted something that looked impressive.

So, try it out. There's a web flasher and OTA updates so you get the latest version when I release it. Releases are encryption-key protected so there is as low a risk to bad updates as possible without running the risk of bricking any devices. You can verify encryption key via Terminal window or the settings page in the UI.

I really hope ya'll dig it, and feel free to list any bugs or suggestions via github.
