Other Features using the LCD Board (EB005)

Post by artravs »

Good Day!

I am a new member here in the Forum and I would be very thankful for some of your Ideas and Info's. :D

Is there any other Features that the LCD board can do? aside from Display. (with the use of the formula flowcode buggy.)

thanks,

Hello,

Not too sure what your looking for but the LCD display board can display alphanumeric characters as well as up to 10 custom characters. Potentiometer on the board can vary the contrast. That's about all the board does, it doesn't play audio or anything :wink:

The LCD has 2x16 display but the RAM is actually 80 bytes so you can potentially store data into the non viewable portion of the display buffer however the read write signal is tied to ground in hardware on the E-block so you cannot read back the data.
