The board hooks up to the trigBoard in the same way as other adapter boards - see [[WeatherBoard]] for a full walkthrough of the assembly.

=== Library ===
 
 
The library I started with  is from [https://github.com/ZinggJM/GxEPD HERE]
 
 
But I found that I had to modify this to work with the 7.5" display - this modified library that I use is archived [http://www.kevindarrah.com/download/GxEPD-master.zip HERE]
 
 
I basically just changed the ESP8266 code to use the same paged update that the AVR uses. 
 
 
=== Hello World ===
 
 
This code just demonstrates basic wiring and configuration by displaying "Hello World" on the display. This is a good point to start from.
