I2C lcd ( arduino ) with PICBASIC, help

[richard]

the ext modifier should help
lcdb VAR BYTE[22]

ASM
lcd_cmd = _lcdb
lcd_buff = _lcdb+2

ENDASM
these must be after the asm code

lcd_cmd var byte EXT
lcd_buff var byte EXT



lcdb[0]=$fe
lcdb[1]= your lcd command eg 1 $80 $c0

use arraywrite to load lcd_buff (max 20 chrs)

then you can pass
lcd_cmd to your lcd write code if you need to send a cmd with your lcd string
or pass lcd_buff if no cmd required

ps don't forget to add a dely after a cmd to give the lcd time to act

ps ps
the asm names are case sensitive


left a bit out

lcd_cmd var byte EXT
lcd_buff var byte EXT

not sure if it needs to be try it and see

lcd_cmd var byte[2] EXT
lcd_buff var byte[20] EXT
