Thanks a lot! it was really time issue, I did not expected it to take so long to show something :) I waited about 20 seconds and LCD shows text now and led also blinks.
Just did a quick test on the demo version of PICSimulator.exe with the attached hex file. This program was built for 16F84 and the whole basic code is this:
Downloaded trial of that PIC simulator - it appears to not be working, I mean I can load hex, run it, I see instructions cycling, but no led blinking, no LCD is outputting anything....
Michael, after doing that, set the port pins LOW, That way you wont be inadvertently setting the clock line high or the data line high before sending REAL data.
Ok Dave, thanks. I'll do that -- like I say, seems to be ok after many on/off cycles with setting the clock and data pins high in the initialization but I'll do what you suggest. thanks !
Michael, What may be happening is, when power is applied to the strip and the processor at the same time the micro has ALL pins in a high impedance state. At that time there is an opportunity for the...
I know I had some responses from some who have used these before but was having an issue with the first led in a string going on with white after powering up. It's always nice to confirm what I did...

This is an effort to help users understand how the I2C command works by comparing it with SHIFTIN/SHIFTOUT. A serial EEPROM, 24FC1025 will be used in the example.
