Have a Pin2dmd that I have just fitted, it has a blank screen on start up, when you turn off the pin and turn back on, the display works. I believe it's a rest issue. Any idea's how to fox it. Thanks.
 
An intermittent blank screen, I would guess is a power issue. Do the board LED lights come on (near the buttons), even when the panel is not?

Is there any way you could test the display with a separate 12V or 5V (connected to the appropriate connector) power supply? A chunky power supply would be a good idea - 2+ amps.
 
Not intermittent as such. It happens every time you turn it on, you then have to cycle power to get a display. Will swap to another pin that has a fully working display and will try a external power supply, thanks
