Help with EX_GLCD.C
PostPosted: Thu Dec 14, 2006 10:53 am     Reply with quote
Hi Guys

This is the first time i am attempting to run the example programme
EX_GLCD.C for a 64x128 samsung KS0108 chipset put the glcd just displays garbage.
my connections the to GLCD are as follows

PIC GLCD(PINS)
E2 CS1 >1
E1 CS2 >2
XXX GND >3
XXX +5V >4
XXX Vo >5
C1 RS > 6
C0 R/W
E0 EN
D7 - D0 connects to DB7 - DB0
RST > +5V
And i changed GLCD.C as follows


Code:



#ifndef GLCD_CS1
#define GLCD_CS1 PIN_E2   // Chip Selection 1
#endif

#ifndef GLCD_CS2
#define GLCD_CS2 PIN_E1   // Chip Selection 2
#endif

#ifndef GLCD_DI
#define GLCD_DI  PIN_B2   // Data or Instruction input
#endif

#ifndef GLCD_RW
#define GLCD_RW  PIN_C0   // Read/Write
#endif

#ifndef GLCD_E
#define GLCD_E   PIN_E0   // Enable
#endif

#ifndef GLCD_RST
#define GLCD_RST PIN_C1   // Reset
#endif




where does Data or Instruction input connect to?

Question

See this thread for an explanation:

RST > +5V

Those two lines contradict each other. The driver wants the RST pin
on the GLCD to go to a PIC pin. You have it connected to +5v.

I think your command data pin is what you call RS.

You've got it connected, so try it and find out. Shouldn't hurt anything.

Best Regards


Code:


#ifndef GLCD_CS1
#define GLCD_CS1 PIN_E2   // Chip Selection 1
#endif

#ifndef GLCD_CS2
#define GLCD_CS2 PIN_E1   // Chip Selection 2
#endif

#ifndef GLCD_DI
#define GLCD_DI  PIN_C1   // Data or Instruction input
#endif

#ifndef GLCD_RW
#define GLCD_RW  PIN_C0   // Read/Write
#endif

#ifndef GLCD_E
#define GLCD_E   PIN_E0   // Enable
#endif

#ifndef GLCD_RST
