Driving Matrices
Step 1. Plug HAT/Bonnet into Raspberry Pi
Step 2. Connect Matrix Power cable to terminal block
Step 3. Connect RGB Matrix Data cable to IDC
Step 4. Power up your Pi via MicroUSB (optional but suggested)
Step 5. Plug in the 5V DC power for the Matrix
Check that the Matrix plugs are installed and in the right location
Step 6. Log into your Pi to install and run software
Testing the Examples
The demos kinda run, but I’m seeing weird rectangles and glitches.
Using the Python Library
Using the RTC
