[Lcd4linux-devel] Sure Electronics DE-LD021 patch

[Natanael O. <no...@gm...>]

Hi,

I bought a Sure Electronics 4x20 alphanumeric display [1] that didn't 
work with lcd4linux.

Here I attach the patch that I did to make it works for me (basically 
using the same methods for protocol 3 as the DE-LD011, removing all 
hardoded values in the code except the buffer, that has now a size of 20 
chars instead 16).

I'm not sure if the corresponding code is DE-LD021 or DE-LP14112 (both 
values appear in the page, and in the sticker label on the package 
appears the second code over an old sticker with the first.. ??).


Hope it helps.


Best regards, and happy new year,
Natanael.

PS: I bought some other displays that aren't working neither, so if I'm 
lucky, maybe I'll send more patches later

BTW, I forgot to say that the driver usb board (there are two boards, 
one with the display and other witht the driver and USB client) have 
another code: DE-LD2XV100.

Your patch has been applied and committed. Thanks for contributing to LCD4Linux.

Could you please add some Documentation to the wiki?



regards, Michael

Thank you, that was fast! :)

I just added the model and a link to the vendor page in the 
MatrixOrbital article. After (hopefullly) my other patches, I'll take a 
further look to see if I'm able to improve something more in the docs.


Thanks again!,
Natanael.

New patch attached. Is just a fix for a bug introduced in my previous 
one for the DE-LD021.

Now I'm fighting with the DE-LP14111 [1]. I expect to have something in 
a few hours, and send a new patch. I'll do an update just before send it 
to avoid conflicts.


My apologizes for the previous buggy patch,
Natanael.
