# Burn-In Clean Burn-in cleaning example for Soldered Inkplate 4. ## Overview Runs multiple full-panel cleaning cycles to reduce burn-in visible on the e-ink panel. Set `CLEAR_CYCLES` and `CYCLES_DELAY` as needed, then flash and wait for the "Cleaning Done!" message. ## Hardware Required - Soldered Inkplate 4 - USB cable ## Setup Run `idf.py menuconfig` and navigate to: **Inkplate Boards → Inkplate4** ## Build and Flash ``` idf.py build idf.py -p PORT flash monitor ``` ## Expected Output - Display shows "Running burn-in clean... Please wait." during cycles. - "Cleaning Done!" appears when all cycles complete. ## Notes - `CLEAR_CYCLES` sets the number of cleaning iterations (default: 20). - `CYCLES_DELAY` sets the delay in milliseconds between each cycle (default: 5000). - `lv_refr_now()` renders the LVGL scene into the framebuffer. - `display.display()` must be called to update the physical e-paper panel. ## Resources - Docs: https://docs.soldered.com/inkplate - Support: https://forum.soldered.com/ - Image tool: https://tools.soldered.com/tools/image-converter/
