CYD Ham Dashboard

BricoHams edition. Flash the dashboard to an ESP32 Cheap Yellow Display straight from this page. Nothing to install.

1. Choose your board

2.8" ESP32-2432S028R – ILI9341 The usual 2.8" CYD. Start here if you are not sure.

2.8" ESP32-2432S028R – ST7789 Some newer 2.8" boards use this panel. Use it only if the ILI9341 build leaves the screen blank or with wrong colours.

4.0" 320×480 – ST7796S The larger 4.0" Cheap Yellow Display.

2. Connect and flash

Plug the board in with a USB data cable, then press the button and pick its serial port.

Your browser can't flash devices. Use Chrome or Edge on a desktop computer. Web Serial needs a secure (HTTPS) page.

3. First start

After flashing, the board starts a Wi-Fi hotspot named CYD-HamClock-Setup (password hamclock).
Join it from your phone or computer. The setup page opens by itself; if it doesn't, browse to http://192.168.4.1.
Choose your home Wi-Fi network, then set your callsign, locator and time zone.
Once the board is on your network, open http://cyd-ham.local/ or the IP shown on the screen to change settings.

Troubleshooting

No serial port listed: install the CH340 USB driver and try another cable. Many cables only carry power.
Connection fails: hold BOOT while you click Connect, and release it when flashing starts.
Screen stays blank after flashing but the board joins Wi-Fi: flash the other 2.8" panel build.
Start from scratch: hold BOOT for 5 seconds to reset all settings.
