Gotek Oled Display Upside Down

Post by paguda »

Hi all,
I bought a Gotek drive for my Amiga, it came with a rotary weel and an oled display.
Everything worked fine at the beginning, however apparently I pushed the wrong buttons and now the oled display is upside down and not using the full lengt of the display. I only see part of the text on the display.
No matter what I try, I can't seem to get it back to its original state.

The drive works fine and all but not being able to read the info on the display properly is annoying.

Do you guys have any advice on how to correct this problem ?

Seems like a reset to default would be a good start. Since it sounds like you can't get to that with your display in this state, I found this note on the HXC site which should let you reset without a display:

Note : To clear/reset all settings to the default values, press the right button at power up during 5 seconds.

Perhaps that will do the trick. There are settings for different types of OLED displays, offset, and chars/line . . . this should get you back to defaults which should work with the typical .91" OLED typically used on Goteks . . .

Reference page for above is viewtopic.php?t=1683

Yes you can find the reset procedure in the documentation :

( But i really don't think that this is an HxC issue here :wink: )
