I have a Latta Panda Alpha board with a builtin Leonardo. I would love to run the Dew controller on the onboard aurduino. I loaded the Scetch but the Serial dont work. I have read that the Serial on this board is a bit different than the nano or Uno. I have tried to change the code but im not sure i know what im doing. Any one tried to use the board for this project.

Thanks

I would recommend you have a look at the myFocuserPro2 firmware files.
I believe there is an option there you can use, I think it is well documented
If you know something about programming Arduino it shouldnt be difficult,

The myDewControllerPro firmware is designed to run on a Nano.

Other chips as you have discovered have issues. Some with the Serial port. The usual Serial event is NOT triggered on this boards, so you need to set the Serial up slightly differently. Google will be able to help.

Yeah i tried that project on the leonardo board as well and it dont work either. This board is just different enough to not work i guess.

I completly redesigned my board and added room for the Nano.

I'm building a Telescope mounted pc. With power distribution Focus control and Dew controllers all in on small box. using the Latte Panda Alpha. Ill post photos when its ready.

Well im using a 1106 display. So i added a space to the code for MYOLED print commands
as so below. notice the space after the (") i did this for all. and this shifted the diplay a few pixels to the right. Seems to have worked for me.
myoled.print(" AMBIENT : ");

can i disable screen 3 somehow. Im not using any board temp or fans. so that info on the display is worthless to me.
Thanks

as the last statement in void display2()
change this line
DisplayPage = 3; // set to display next page

to read
DisplayPage = 1; // set to display next page
