Any chance I could talk you into buying the 20x4 serial LCD display instead of the one above ? :twisted: :mrgreen:
Definitely not out of the question, I’ll try this one out first though.
would something like this accomplish the same thing? http://www.sparkfun.com/products/258
This is the code that will display Hello World on this LCD, it looks like it should be pretty easy.
*/
// include the library code:
#include <LiquidCrystal.h>
// initialize the library with the numbers of the interface pins
LiquidCrystal lcd(12, 11, 5, 4, 3, 2);
void setup() {
// set up the LCD’s number of columns and rows:
lcd.begin(16, 2);
// Print a message to the LCD.
lcd.print(“hello, world!”);
}
void loop() {
// set the cursor to column 0, line 1
// (note: line 1 is the second row, since counting begins with 0):
lcd.setCursor(0, 1);
// print the number of seconds since reset:
lcd.print(millis()/1000);
}
