LCD SEROUT2 help

[CSU_2010]

Hi all,
I have a serial LCD connected to a 16F88. I can get things to display on the LCD if I write the code like:

SEROUT2     lcd,396,[$FE,1,"Test"]

But I am lost on how to get a variable to display.

SEROUT2     lcd,396,[$FE,1,variable]

The end result I'm looking for is getting an RFID tag number from a reader and display that tag number on the lcd. I'm using a parallax RFID reader.

Thanks for any help,
Josh

SEROUT2     lcd,396,[$FE,1,#variable]

I got this code to work:

DEFINE OSC 8			'Internal Oscillator set to 8mhz
OSCCON.4=1
OSCCON.5=1
OSCCON.6=1

ANSEL=0				'Turns off A/D converter

lcd	Var PORTB.5

tag1	Var	BYTE

Pause 500

SEROUT lcd,0,[$FE,1]

Pause 200

SEROUT lcd,0,[$FE,1,"Test"]

Pause 2000

SEROUT2 lcd,396,[$FE,$C0,"2nd Line???"]

tag1=123

SEROUT2 lcd,396,[$FE,$94,DEC tag1]

But now I'm trying to get a ten digit number to display, something like

1000504B02

and i keep getting errors.

How are you storing this 10 digit number? In an array?

[CSU_2010]

I'm not really sure how to store it, I tried just putting

tag1=100050A4B7

But it truncates and displays only "FF"

[mackrackit]

The easy way would be

tag1	Var	LONG

If you are using PBP 2.50

Otherwise I would say you need to store it an array.
