Visit my YouTube channel it will automatically clear if the micro-controller is


turned off. Before starting please watch the Video it
In this post I am going to discuss about "How can you gives you the whole Idea about the project,,,,and if
make a scrolling display using the arduino and control you like the video then don't forget to leave the like
it through smartphone" . By using the Bluetooth you and comment and share the video......So.let's get
can send maximum 63 characters and through the started....
program it can display up to 500 characters (In my
case). The message from Bluetooth is temporary and

Step 1: Step 1: Materials and Tools

1) Bread Board

2) 2pcs Of DMD (dot-matrix-display) mine is P10

3) Arduino UNO or NANO

4) HC-05 Bluetooth module

5) Jumper Wires

6) Wire stripper

7) Screwdriver

8) 5 Volt DC adapter (Higher the Amp better the brightness "max-5 amp")

Step 2: Step 2: Circuit

Connect the DMD pins as shown in the circuit GND >>> GND of arduino( any one)
diagram and connect the output of the first module to
the input of the second module and also connect the Bluetooth Connection
Vcc and GND of the both panel using wires.
Connect the TX of the Bluetooth module to the RX
Connection of led panel with arduino UNO (D0) pin of the arduino and RX of bt. module to TX
(D1) of arduino UNO...
OE >>> D9
You can also change the Password and Name of the
A >>> D6 bluetooth module using AT command to ahange the
password and name connect TX of Bt. module to TX
B >>> D7 of UNO and RX to RX and Open Arduino IDE and
open Serian monitor Type AT command. You can find
C >>> No connection all AT command of HC-05 Module on internet "
search for 'AT command of HC-05' on google"
CLK >>> D13
NOTE***---You Cant upload the program while
SCLK >>> D8 bluetooth is connected to the arduino.

R >>> D11
