Hello, i jusy signed in this forum because i bought a 1x16 character display that uses a ks0062 or hd44780 compatible controller and i cant get it to work it only shows the first 8 blocks and thats all
i built a parallel cable using this layout: pin 1 to 8 from the cable used to DB0 to DB7 pin 9 for strobe pin 14 for read/write pin 16 for RS and connected the 5v and ground cables to a molex connector still i just get those blocks
.........when i enter the program and select the generic hd44780 it doesnt let me select a speed rate and its fixed to 0 that might be the problem? i dont know...............well if you guys could help me i would really appretiate it because i need to get this working by next friday anyways i would like to try to fix it after that but not in such a hurry in case i dont get answers so soon ![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
