Nice to find some code already made for serial LCD, I just burned the backpack on my cool Serial LCD
no prob, I had 4 LCDs waiting for me to drive them with a16F628
I just tried the code with INstant interupt, which took me an hour to setup the whole thing to compile(not bad actually), but now I see only stranges characters appearing on the LCD.
like I send "b" char, and the dipslay will do '
do I need to create a map of matching characters, or is there a tweak to get the correct display?
in attached picture, I've sent AAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaa using the serial communicator from Mecanique,
it displayed ___________________000000000000000 on the LCD?
it's driven by a 16F628a, running at 20mhz
Display is 4x20 from Orient Display, saying it's requiring a S6A0069 and is compatible with HD44780 4/8bit.

I've blanked all define to run from default except for
DEFINE LCD_LINES 4
because I ain't know how to tweaks all the parameters.
Started to play with other defines but not luck yet.
maybe the answer is in there?
