Usage
This devices can be operated via a wide variety of devices like a Raspberry Pi or a STM32 or and Arduino. The manufacturer published a github repository to provide a libraries e-paper display for a wide range of programming languages. The github repository can be found under this link. This repo also provide example programs for both of this devices in the directory e-Paper/RaspberryPi&JetsonNano/python/examples. With the smaller display the epd_2in13bc_test.py runs the example program, where as the epd_7in5bc_test.py runs the test program for the 7,5 inch display.
