Melabs Serial LCD

[tazntex]

I've done this before but its been awhile since I've used this LCD. I am sending this out serially from a 16f628a, I can't remember how to use the modifier to display the value in decimal.
here is a clip:
Serout serpinout,N9600,[$fe,$80,#resistor5,"resistor5"]


Thanks

Thanks for the help.

The HELP file does wonders!

[tazntex]

Did you mean intead of Serout serpinout,N9600,[$fe,$80,dec resistor5,"resistor5"]
Serout2 serpinout,N9600,[$fe,$80,dec resistor5,"resistor5"]
if I use the first one I received Bad Expression.

Which help file? The PBP manual or the SLCD?

Many thanks

If you want PBP to convert your byte value into a string of text for the lcd to display, then you need to read the PBP help file to learn how.

it's the
dec variable
that turns the variable into a decimal printout, a string of text.
