I have some Java (1.4.1) code to clear the LCD (SDK204-634), set the cursor to the home position, then print the date/time to the LCD:
The code compiles and runs, but never clears the LCD or resets the cursor to the home position.
What am I doing wrong?
(NOTE: This is a cross-post from the Technical Support forum)
Code:
while (true) {
outputStream.write('\12'); // form feed
outputStream.write('\1'); // cursor home
outputStream.write((new Date()).toString().getBytes());
try {
Thread.sleep(750L);
} catch (InterruptedException(ex) {
}
}
What am I doing wrong?
