Big Problems - OC LCD Card

Hi Les,

I am so happy... I figured out how to get any display I want on it now!!!

Basically, I first start IOCLCD.exe. Then, I import Nico's script. I then run SIOC, then, finally, IOCLCDtest.exe... Then it will display L, C, R. If I want to change this, I just overwrite Nico's text on the virutal display, re-save, and close and re-open IOCLCDtest.exe. A bit "clunky" I know, but it works!!!

It only works when using Nico's script though. I will look into this more later today.

Jack:D

Jack,
All i have to do run IOLCD.exe and make sure that myfile.lcd is in same dir and that myfile.lcd is inserted into the .ini file, thats all. My text will then be displayed.If you want to change the text run LCDConfig and save under same name. Now new text will be displayed when IOLCD.exe is run again
Not very CLUNKY. Try it.
Les

Jack,
L C and R are fixed characters, they come from the .lcd file and not from SIOC.
Study the manual for the LCD card, in there is described how you get fixed characters.

Hi everyone,

VERY sorry to come back to this thread... Especially after I said everything was done!

I have made the following Virtual Display...

However, after starting IOCLCD.exe... Only the FIRST line of text displays. What's wrong? The second line does work because I have tested it using other Virtual Displays.

IOCLCD.ini:

Code:

The file is called "MUTs.lcd"

Jack,
I would delete and start again. When i was playing around i found that if your text in the configurator was longer than your display funny things happened when you ran IOLCD.exe. Deleting and starting again fixed it for me.
