Always wear safety glasses while programming.

YES I do.... Should have mentioned that earlier on.
Actually used a little interface board from here :http://www.mikroe.com/eng/products/v...adapter-board/ pre-wired for 4 bit mode

That POT is for the backlight according to the data sheet.

The pot is for the contrast, I have 3 pots on a separate board to control the RGB back light.
The display DOES use the standard LCD controller, I made sure I at least got that part right.

I think some of the problems I am having is not being sure of what coding the file example I am trying to copy is in (Basic, C, Assembly).
To just initialize the LCD I am assuming I have to Code the port/Pins the LCD is on, and then send the initialization string "LCD_Init" .
