I just got my 634 Intelligent 2.0 inverted yada yada today. Plugged the cable into the display, the other end into the serial port, fired up LCDproc.... nothing...
Here's the driver section of my /etc/LCDd.conf
[CFontz]
# CrystalFontz driver
# Select the output device to use [/dev/lcd]
Device=/dev/tty1
# Select the LCD type (size) [20x4]
Size=20x4
# Set the initial contrast [140]
Contrast=140
# The backlight brightness settings are retrieved
# from the serversection now. And can therefore be
# modified from the server menu now.
# Set the communication speed [9600]
# possible values: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200
Speed=19200
# Set the firmware version (New means >= 2.0) [no]
# if set, set Speed to 19200
NewFirmware=new
# Reinitialize the LCD's BIOS [no]
# normally you shouldn't need this
Reboot=no
I've tried setting it to /dev/tty0 as well, same thing. I'm using the CVS version of LCDproc and I;'ve used it fine with an HD44780 VFD. So what's wrong?
I measured -12v across pins 5 (GND) and 7(live). Is -12v correct??? Anyway, what's wrong? THanks!
