LCD plugin supporting more than 70 display types (now with full graphics support!!!) (2 Viewers)

Flipit,

I sent you a PM with a link to a beta version of my plugin with iMON support to try...

Thomas,
The API looks pretty straightforward so I'll be able to provide you a test program soon...

Thomas,

I uploaded a test program for your SED133x USB display.
You can find it here: http://users.skynet.be/fa303665/SED133xTest.zip

Can you please try it?
The program crashses here when I press the Clear or SendText buttons, but I don't know whether that is because there is no display attached, or because of a bug in my program...

You should be able to choose "iMON" as display type in the plugin setup screen. I checked it here and the option is in the list. Read the included readme.doc file of complete installation guide...

Yes, please give feedback in a PM, as it will not be of interest for other readers of this forum topic...

Thanks Neo,
Here is the link:

Looking forward for your feedback...

What I'm interested in is:
- Does it work? :wink:
- Does the data being displayed make sense?
- What happens when a long string is displayed? Is it truncated or does it scroll?

I think you need to have the display drivers installed, but I guess you know more about that than I do...

Ok, here the results:

1) It works! Great!
2) The data surely makes sense
3) I regret to say it's truncated

Yes!!! :lol: I wish I could include all display types that easy...

I was silently hoping that the API would scroll the data when it is too long.
But no problem, I can reuse the scrolling mechanism from the other display types... The next version will have scrolling support...
