Hi! I'm working with the Powertip character LCD (PC1202-A). The LCD driver is HD44780 compatible. I've tested all the other functions and they are working fine but I'm unable to display anything on the second line. I'll be very grateful if i could get any help on this issue. Tamkeen
at what address are you writing line2? Erik
I've tried writing at 40h. Also I've tested other possible addresses. I believe the problem lies with initialization, because even if I don't send a function set command, the LCD behaves the same. Using standard methods and applying varied delays I've tried almost everything in vain. The LCD simply initializes to the standard 8-bit, 1-line, 5x7 dots!
many LCD modules do, for u8nknown reasons, require you to go through the initialize twice re http://www.8052.com/forum/read.phtml?id=101969 Erik
Thanks for the hints. unfortunately didn't work in my case.
