- shared lib: setRotation() rotates only the panel and redraws; touch

  getRotation() added

OBD Speed (JC3636W518)

Vehicle speed from an ELM327 over BLE, shown as a big number + arc gauge on top of an animated GIF. Uses the shared board library and LVGL 9.6 (../shared), NimBLE-Arduino 2.5.1.

Use

  • Speed page — speed in km/h (-- = no data: not connected, or ignition off), arc gauge 0–200 km/h, status at the bottom (adapter name when running, otherwise what it is doing).
  • Swipe left → adapter menu — scans while open. OBD-like adapters (name OBD/ELM/…, or service FFF0/FFE0/18F0) are listed first in green. Tap one to select it: it is remembered (NVS) and connected immediately. Forget clears the remembered adapter, Done (or swipe right) returns to the speed page.
  • Swipe left again → settings — screen rotation 0 / 90 / 180 / 270 degrees (tap to apply; remembered in NVS, applied at boot).
  • On power-up the remembered adapter is connected automatically; if the link drops or the adapter is not there (car off), it retries every 3 s. With no adapter remembered, the device starts on the menu page.

How it talks to the ELM327

Service FFF0, notifications + commands on FFF1 (verified with the user's "OBDII" adapter, see docs/2026-10-23_ble_scanner_car_test.txt, made with the BLE scanner tool that was removed afterwards — in git history); other adapters: first notify+write pair. Init: ATZ, ATE0, ATL0, ATS0, ATH0, ATSP0, 0100; then 010D (speed) is polled continuously. Serial (115200) prints status changes as [obd] ....
