Extended ASCII, some problems
Hi bitmaniac & all,
I used bitmaniac's matrix.zip files to wake up my LCD with 16F876A and wake up was success :)
Then I tried to add some new characters to EEPROM area (DATA), but EEPROM is quite limited. I made some modifications to (Lcd_SentChar, attachement) and removed all character from EEPROM area. Now I have both A-Z and a-z characters available, working fine :)
Also I added some extended ASCII codes, like Ä,Ö,ä,ö but then I noticed problems? It seems that LOOKUP cannot handle extended ASCII codes? Error message was: Argument out of range. Least signficant bits used and there was no exteded ASCII on LCD
LOOKUP2 didn't give any errors, but no extended ASCII characters on LCD.
Can somebody help, how to show extended ASCII with LOOKUP command?

Nokia 3310 and 7110 LCD command libraries
I don't know how many is still using old (monochrome) Nokia LCD displays, but I do.
To make it easier to write code for both 3310 LCD (PDC8544) or variants (Nokia 8210...) and 7110 LCD (SED1565), I made a common command library for both LCD types. So you can use same commands in your program and only change display and link right library file (see attachement for more info). Of cource there are more pixels in 7110 and therefore you must do some fine tuning for character/picture positions, but anyway it will work with a minimum effort. At least I hope so.
I use this by including it to main program
Code:
'----- LCD Setup -----
include "LCD_3310.pbp"
or
Code:
'----- LCD Setup -----
include "LCD_7110.pbp"
Most of the code is already posted here earlier (BIG thanks for that!), something is modified and something new.
