SH1106 display in Panel Universal Adapter?

Hey everyone,

Continuing my journey on my Smoothie upgrade, I’m trying to figure out how to use my tiny SH1106 I²C OLED display for a panel display. It works great on my Marlin setup, and I’d hate to see it disappear in the upgrade.

As an I²C panel, I guess that I need to use the Universal Adapter (+ an Arduino), but the LiquidTWI2 code that the Adapter uses for I²C panels doesn’t specifically mention support for SH1106 (or OLEDs in general). Has anyone tried to use a non-supported I²C panel with the Universal Adapter? If not, is there an OLED library that could work? (Note: I’ve done some programming for work, but don’t know much about communication protocols, so forgive me if I’m speaking nonsense right now!)

Thanks in advance!

I don’t know that anybody tried. You can try and tell us if it works. Use of the adapter is very rare anyway, so I wouldn’t expect many folks on this forum to have answers for you.
