Logs are ready. I'll send you them.

It's exactly what I searched for.

All is right now.

Thank you very much.

The wiki can be updated by everyone. If you feel something is missing, why don't you update it yourself? :wink:

There is a C source code for the HD61830 + 18F452 available at:

HD61830 C source code for PIC microcontroller

I'm writting a source code for the HD61830 + PIC18F452. It is a commented code and contains some advanced functions you may like.
There are 3 graphical fonts implemented in the graph mode, so you will be able to mix text and graphics. Also, I've implemented a "put string" function that is able to start plotting chars in the graph mode in any XY position - very usefull when using different font sizes.

It is available at: http://eletronica.50webs.com/

I hope it may help.

Roberto.

I reactivated my old HD44780 driver. The one it all started with :wink:
Koschel confirms that this one works after resuming from hibernation.

I also added an experimental driver for the Noritake GU7000 VFDs, feel free to try it...

Tuesday evening I started also with the development for a GU7000 driver. Yesterday I've tested your driver. Great work. The result are very similar. I've only two suggestions.

1. commPort.Handshake must set to:

commPort.Handshake = Handshake.RequestToSend;

otherwise the display will not work properly.

2. The Display can handle baud rates up to 115200 selectable over jumper. The standard baud rate is 38400. Is it possible to make these setting configurable?

There is still a problem with special characters (e.g. üäö€). I will try to resolve it this evening.

Thanks. Please send me your sources when it's finished. I'll include them in my plugin...

I can make the baudrate, codepage and font set configurable in the advanced configuration.

Hi.

I've got a Imon USB VFD, the Imon VFD.exe software causes my pc to completely lock up.

The imon software itself works fine, but I am unable to use the VFD to it's full advantage.

Does anyone know of a fix for the program, or a way of making it work through MediaPortal?

Thanks in advance.

Tony.
