You need to place the pin assignment statements above the #include line
for lcd.c. Also, the #define statements must not be commented out.
Example:
Code: |
#define LCD_ENABLE_PIN PIN_C0
#define LCD_RS_PIN PIN_C1
#define LCD_RW_PIN PIN_C2
#define LCD_DATA4 PIN_D4
#define LCD_DATA5 PIN_D5
#define LCD_DATA6 PIN_D6
#define LCD_DATA7 PIN_D7
#include <lcd.c> // This line must go here

%f is used to clear the LCD Screen,
what if i want to go to a particular line,
i use statement lcd_gotoxy(1,1);
it means 1st row and 1st columns
while
lcd_gotoxy(2,1);
second row first column not working
Can you tell me why it is so.
Code: |
#include<16f877a.h>
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#fuses HS,NOWDT,NOPROTECT,NOLVP
#use rs232(baud=9600,xmit=PIN_C6,rcv=PIN_C7,parity=N,bits=8,ERRORS)
#define LCD_ENABLE_PIN PIN_C0
#define LCD_RS_PIN PIN_C1
#define LCD_RW_PIN PIN_C2
#define LCD_DATA4 PIN_D4
#define LCD_DATA5 PIN_D5
#define LCD_DATA6 PIN_D6
#define LCD_DATA7 PIN_D7
#include <lcd.c>
void main()
{
set_tris_d(0x00);
set_tris_c(0x00);
lcd_init();
Delay_ms(100);
while(1)
{
lcd_gotoxy(2,1);
Delay_ms(1000);
lcd_putc("\fArun Sharma"); // /f clears the display
Delay_ms(1000);
printf("Serial Communication\n\r");
Delay_ms(1000);
}
}

This is not working means Arun Sharma is not displaying on Second line.. _________________ Arun Sharma |

...

..
Have a read of the LCD driver comments at the beginning...
(1,2) not (2,1) |

I have tried all combination..
and it is not written in driver file,
Quote: | ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//// LCD.C ////
//// Driver for common LCD modules ////
//// ////
//// lcd_init() Must be called before any other function. ////
//// ////
//// lcd_putc(c) Will display c on the next position of the LCD. ////
//// The following have special meaning: ////
//// \f Clear display ////
//// \n Go to start of second line ////
//// \b Move back one position ////
//// ////
//// lcd_gotoxy(x,y) Set write position on LCD (upper left is 1,1) ////
//// ////
//// lcd_getc(x,y) Returns character at position x,y on LCD |
This is written,,
Anyways thanks for ur reply,
but still it doesn't works..
Code: | #include<16f877a.h>
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#fuses HS,NOWDT,NOPROTECT,NOLVP
#use rs232(baud=9600,xmit=PIN_C6,rcv=PIN_C7,parity=N,bits=8,ERRORS)
#define LCD_ENABLE_PIN PIN_C0
#define LCD_RS_PIN PIN_C1
#define LCD_RW_PIN PIN_C2
#define LCD_DATA4 PIN_D4
#define LCD_DATA5 PIN_D5
#define LCD_DATA6 PIN_D6
#define LCD_DATA7 PIN_D7
#include <lcd.c>
void main()
{
set_tris_d(0x00);
set_tris_c(0x00);
lcd_init();
Delay_ms(100);
while(1)
{
lcd_gotoxy(1,2);
Delay_ms(1000);
lcd_putc("\fArun Sharma"); // /f clears the display
Delay_ms(1000);
printf("Serial Communication\n\r");
Delay_ms(1000);
}
} |

Been a while since I looked at the LCD specs (and they all vary), but I thought there had to be a delay after a "\f" (form-feed / clear display) before you sent it more text ?

It's all handled by the lcd driver. Check the source code in the CCS
Code Library forum. |

I've not dealt with LCD's much, but does the clear screen in lcd_putc("\fArun Sharma") also reset the position? If so, the lcd_gotoxy(1,2) would be meaningless. |

Yes, it clears the display and puts the cursor in home position (1, 1). |
