Properties |
|
Display Type |
| Set this according to the specification of your hardware display. Common Anode: Pin true -> LED Off, Pin false -> LED On Common Cathode: Pin true -> LED On, Pin false -> LED Off | |
|
|
Common Type |
| The state of the output common pin when the 7-segment display is active. Usually a common cathode display uses a low signal and a common anode uses a high signal. If the common pin is routed via a transistor for power amplification then the signal may need to be reversed. | |
|
Show Seg Labels |
| Show segment name labels overlayed over the component. | |
|
Connections |
|
Common Pin 0 |
| Pin to enable the first digit. | |
|
|
Common Pin 1 |
| Pin to enable the second digit. | |
|
|
Common Pin 2 |
| Pin to enable the third digit. | |
|
|
Common Pin 3 |
| Pin to enable the fourth digit. | |
|
|
Pin0 (A) |
| Pin for the 'A' segments of the displays. | |
|
|
Pin1 (B) |
| Pin for the 'B' segments of the displays. | |
|
|
Pin2 (C) |
| Pin for the 'C' segments of the displays. | |
|
|
Pin3 (D) |
| Pin for the 'D' segments of the displays. | |
|
|
Pin4 (E) |
| Pin for the 'E' segments of the displays. | |
|
|
Pin5 (F) |
| Pin for the 'F' segments of the displays. | |
|
|
Pin6 (G) |
| Pin for the 'G' segments of the displays. | |
|
|
Pin7 (DP) |
| Pin for the decimal points of the displays. | |
|
|
Colors |
|
LED Color |
| Color of the LED segments when truned on. When off, they use a much darker shade of the same hue. | |
|
|
Body Color |
| Color of the plastic casing containing the LEDs. | |
|
|
Label Color |
| Color for the optional LED segment labels. | |
