I do not know if the Sanyo LC7985 is HD44780 compatible. A cursory look at the Sanyo LC7985 datasheet:

looks like it might be compatible.

You would have to trace each of the pins on the module's connector to the chip in order to come up with a pin-out.

You should be okay as long as you know the pin out of the module you are working with and the controller is HD44780 compatible.
