if you are using 4 bit mode for lcd then the DL bit must remain unset in the command
my code assumes 4 bit mode
to get to lcd mode RE bit must be 0
so more like
lcdout $FE, %00100010...
Haven't tried 1st suggestion yet, but I've been playing around with your 2nd suggestion... well... I can't find a datasheet for my displays so I've been playing the old game of finding a ST7920 DS...
rocket_troy Today, 05:53Yeah, that would work, but I thought this was cool with the delay. :D
And I've never touched a 555 or 7404, so it was a learning experience.
seems an awful lot of circuitry to achieve not a lot, would it not be easier to turn it off, count to 3 turn it on again :D
for all that work i would expect at least a single button on/off facility
The purpose of this circuit is to provide sufficient time for the PICs and LCDs to make a complete reset once powered down and back up.

...
does it make a difference if you power it down verses a reset >\?
also if you look at the data sheet you can see what commands are needed to make a routine to revert to lcd mode, do a clear screen...
No luck. Maybe 1 in 10 starts I still get the zeros. Tried increasing the DEFINE LCD_COMMANDUS 1000 to 1500 and DEFINE LCD_DATAUS to 100 and inserted the code you suggested. I didn't mention I need...

Re: Complete circuit RESET
I like this idea
