# Partial Update with Deep Sleep Incremental partial screen update across deep sleep cycles on Soldered Inkplate 10. ## Overview Demonstrates how to combine partial display updates with deep sleep. On first boot a full refresh is performed; on subsequent wakes the ESP32 rebuilds the screen content and performs a partial update, incrementing a counter and a decimal value each cycle. ## Hardware Required - Soldered Inkplate 10 - USB cable ## Setup Run `idf.py menuconfig` and navigate to: **Inkplate Boards → Inkplate10** ## Build and Flash ``` idf.py build idf.py -p PORT flash monitor ``` ## Expected Output - First boot: full display refresh. - Each subsequent wake-up: partial update with incremented counter and value. ## Notes - Partial update works only in 1-bit (black & white) mode. - Always rebuild screen content after deep sleep before calling `partialUpdate()`. - Perform a full refresh every 5–10 partial updates to maintain image quality. ## Resources - Docs: https://docs.soldered.com/inkplate - Support: https://forum.soldered.com/ - Image tool: https://tools.soldered.com/tools/image-converter/
