Hi Guys,
I am wondering if anyone has some direction for me in reference to using a serial LCD 16x2 with Pic 16F877A chip. Maybe an article or other post? I did some searching but didn’t come up with what I am looking for. Thanks for the help!!

Hello Werner,
Is this any good for you.

Or are you using a LCD module with serial interface? If so then you should be able to use the RS232 component to control the display.

Re: Using Serial LCD and Flowcode?
Thanks Guys for the info links! I did find both of these and read through them a few times but am not getting it? It looks like I can still use the LCD component macro but need to add a C Code box with that huge about of C code you have in the PIC_LCD.c file?? Am I anywhere close? Thanks again Guys!

Hello Werner,
PIC_LCD.c is a replacement for the LCD component C code. For my example you would backup the C file in your "Flowcode v4/Components" directory and then replace the file with the file from the forums. The LCD component then works as usual but using the new modified code.
