## How to port another display?
|
|
|
|
|
Analyse the display pins. You can use the ProMicro as a logic analyzer, to find the relevant segment pins and the common pins.

## possible improvements
|
|
|
|
|
- error handlich of the serial connection. (If screen is kill in operation. The microcontroller needs a restart to reset the serial connection)
|
|
|
|
|
- handle all 4 digits by the print_digit() function.
