Hi Tom.

It looks like the example code was written for use with an ATMega328 based board like the Arduino Uno or RedBoard Qwiic and might not work on another platform. You might need to try one of those boards.

Hi Tom.

Looks like we did some work on the library for the Qwiic Alphanumeric Display. You might try deleting the library and pulling the [most current version from Github. That may just fix your issue!](GitHub - sparkfun/SparkFun_Alphanumeric_Display_Arduino_Library: Arduino Library for the SparkX Qwiic Alphanumeric Display)
