Usermod Setup

• Global I2C GPIOs (HW) - Set the SDA and SCL pins

4LineDisplay

• enabled - enable/disable usermod
• type - display type in numeric format
  • 1 = I2C SSD1306 128x32
  • 2 = I2C SH1106 128x32
  • 3 = I2C SSD1306 128x64 (4 double-height lines)
  • 4 = I2C SSD1305 128x32
  • 5 = I2C SSD1305 128x64 (4 double-height lines)
  • 6 = SPI SSD1306 128x32
  • 7 = SPI SSD1306 128x64 (4 double-height lines)
  • 8 = SPI SSD1309 128x64 (4 double-height lines)
  • 9 = I2C SSD1309 128x64 (4 double-height lines)
• pin - GPIO pins used for display; SPI displays can use SCK, MOSI, CS, DC & RST
• flip - flip/rotate display 180°
• contrast - set display contrast (higher contrast may reduce display lifetime)
• screenTimeOutSec - screen saver time-out in seconds
• sleepMode - enable/disable screen saver
• clockMode - enable/disable clock display in screen saver mode
• showSeconds - Show seconds on the clock display
• i2c-freq-kHz - I2C clock frequency in kHz (may help reduce dropped frames, range: 400-3400)
