Inkplate 6 firmware update for e-Radionica and Soldered models

Customer:

I have an older Inkplate 6 from e-Radionica (not Soldered). I recently tried to use it and discovered it only works with Library v4, not the newer versions. I found no clear documentation about firmware updates or compatibility. Can I update my device to use Library 10 features?

Soldered Support:

The new Inkplate Arduino library (10.2) is compatible with both board types:

  • e-Radionica Inkplate 6
  • Soldered Inkplate 6

You can update via the Arduino library manager or by downloading and installing as a .zip library from GitHub.

Update the library from: GitHub - SolderedElectronics/Inkplate-Arduino-library: Inkplate family Arduino library. The easiest way to add e-paper to your project. · GitHub

Update board definitions using the tutorial at: GitHub - SolderedElectronics/Dasduino-Board-Definitions-for-Arduino-IDE · GitHub

After updating, select your Inkplate 6 board definition and upload an example from the library.
