GLCD prints garbage
PostPosted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 6:22 am     Reply with quote

I'm starting a GLCD project. When i draw some rectangles and text on the GLCD and call glcd_update(), it's printed almost OK, but there are some defects over some characters or lines.

I only thought about adding some delays around the glcd_writebyte function, but doesn't work at all.

Defects appear always at the same spots for each window i draw, but the are not the same screen pixels all the time (i mean, the problem is not death pixels).

For example, for this piece of code:

Code:

   char* tituloError [10];
   char* textoOK [3];
   
   pulsaOK = 1;
   sprintf(textoOK, "OK");
   
   if(code<10)
      sprintf(tituloError, "ERROR #0%d", code);
   else
      sprintf(tituloError, "ERROR #%d", code); 

   glcd_rect(12,10,116,54,0,ON);
   glcd_rect(13,11,115,53,1,OFF);
   glcd_rect(14,12,114,52,1,ON);
   glcd_line(30,22,98,20,OFF);
   glcd_rect(53,39,75,50,1,OFF);
   glcd_text57(36,14, tituloError, 1, ON);
   glcd_text57(58, 41, TextoOK, 1, OFF);
   glcd_update();


...I'm getting this on the GLCD:


the glcd.c library is the one included with the ccs compiler, used for a 128x64 screen. Any changed at the libraries except my attempt of fixing the problem adding delays.

Any idea where the problem could be coming from?

Thanks

There have been some bugs in the GLCD driver code in the past.
They are listed in the CCS forum archives.

What is your GLCD controller chip ? And manufacturer and model number
of the GLCD ?

What is your compiler version ?
