hello I have a standard parallel interface lcd that I have hooked up to a 16F677
and I cant get it to go ,I have never had trouble with these before ,I have tested the screen on a 16F84 and it works ,but will not work on the 677,
but the controls do work ,Ie I can turn on the blinking cursor and move it around on the screen ,but as soon as i send it a character it just goes blank
I have turned off all the hardware stuff I can find ,I have also move it around on the pic so its not a problem with one port specifically .I have it running on the internal clock ,but have tried it hooked up to a standard 4MHz crystal ,but it still does the same thing ,I have also tried defining the osc at 4MHz so the lcdout instruction knows how fast the internal osc is going but this made no difference
I am using microcode studio 2.2.1.1 and PBP2.47 I have a epic win programmer and are currently using the melabs beta driver for it
Any tips or suggestions would be greatly apreciated
