I just got the above 16x2 VFD module off eBay and I got it working with my Raspberry Pi 3 LibreElec media center. The brief datasheet I found told me the correct pin connections (minus of course the two pins for LCD backlight) and since it says the VFD is HD44780 compatible I used that driver in the LCDd.conf. I tried using the NoritakeVFD driver but that did not give me any output on the VFD. The datasheet also mentions a 4 level brightness control (via software commands). What I want to achieve...

Looking at things a little deeper, the lcd4linux project (which seems to be abandoned now?) has a Newhaven driver for both RS232 and I2C: https://lcd4linux.bulix.org/wiki/Newhaven Connecting the display to my RS232 level shifter and then the UART ports on my pine64-LTS I do see characters appearing. Of course these are probably whatever the display can interpret from the TTY console output, as these are just a bunch of non-sensical random characters being displayed. From the documentation it looks...

Hi, I am wondering if the Newhaven range of displays are supported? I've got 3 of these displays: https://www.newhavendisplay.com/nhd0220d3zflgbwv3-p-5742.html which support I2C, SPI and RS232. They are connected to Pine64-LTS boards through a TTL 3V -> RS232 level shifter, in RS232 mode. The tech specs for the display are here: http://www.newhavendisplay.com/specs/NHD-0220D3Z-FL-GBW-V3.pdf The displays themselves use a PIC16F690 controller: http://www.newhavendisplay.com/app_notes/PIC16F690.pdf...

I am trying to get my 4x20 display to show my CPU/GPU temp and usage. I can not for the life of me get it to work with lcdproc or lcd4linux. I was able to do it in LCDSmartie in windows, but now I am running linux. Amy ideas or help?

i know this is an old topic, but relevant to me here as I have a DX4000 now running IPFire and have been able to get atleast (for now) LCD4Linux to recognize the device. I am also interested in testing LDCproc, but will be doing that next. One thing to note about this LCD is that it is 'compatible' with the generic HD44780 and on the DX4000 it uses parallel port 0x378 I have not tested much yet.. i literally "just" got this working. you will need to add the parport device to the system by executing...

Hello, I trying to use an LCD from an old Netscaler 7000. References which are available on it : AMC1602AR-B-B12WTDW-SP03-S2 06256001018 The brand seems to be a OrientLCD AMC1602AR_B_B6WTDW Controller seems to be a S6A0069 and I have found on an LCDproc mailing list that it seems to be a hd44780 compatible device. It is a com2 device which is using 0x2F8. I configured the LCDd.conf to use the hd44780 drivers and made many tests, tested many ConnectionType or CharMap .... LCD is working but I only...

The driver isn't the issue, it's the connection back to the CPU. It's likely that's just an HD44780 under one of those epoxy bubbles. That's the driver you probably need. What you have to know is what I/O location in memory the ports are at, and what bits control which functions. Even more than that, the HD44780 can be talked to in 4-bit mode or 8-bit mode and you'd need to know that just to begin speaking to the LCD. In the case of attaching a raw HD44780-type 16x2 LCD, there are examples in the...

Thank you for answering so fast. Do you think is a good idea to try different drivers until someone works? Which ones do you think it could be the best start to try them? Thank you again.
-
That's an odd looking connector up there. From the view of the lit LCD and the part number, it's likely that the core LCD is some sort of 16x2 HD44780-based LCD module, but it looks tough to guess which lines at the connector might correspond to which standard HD447800 signals because the die is under an epoxy blob, not in a standard PLCC or QFP package that one might trace out. I won't say it's impossible to figure out but it looks quite difficult.

I am using a crystalfontz 633 with six keys. No where do I find how to use a keypress to do a function in an external program. I have built a client with several screens, added the up and down arrow keys exclusively to that client, but how do I read a keypress to allow my software to act on it. Specifically, I am using a python script to read and control an instance of VLC media player. I have title and artist info displaying on the screen, and would like to be able to use the up and down keys to...

Hello! Could anybody post a working driver for a hd44780 display connected via gpio to a raspberry pi 1 rev 2? The driver I tried doesnt seem to work: BTW: is the correct ConnetionType "rpi" or "raspberrypi"? I found both on the web. And is the correct pin mapping "pin_D4=25" or "D4=25". Also found both on the web... Thanks!!

I wrote an lcdproc client (in C) to drive a HD44780 character LCD over i2c on a raspberry pi3 as localhost. It works great mostly except for getting an ocassional SIGPIPE (closed socket). The SIGPIPE on the stand alone client process isn't any big deal. I can use systemctl to auto-restart it when it exits with SIGPIPE. What I want to do is use a named pipe to pass an integer variable from a seperate process to my client. The problem is that it also causes the the process to crash with a SIGPIPE when...
