GLCD Library for PBP

[mackrackit]

No, it is mine. I will also be doing a 192x64 and a 240x128 with similar features. Its a complete system requiring just a single port pin. It can be used with low pin count devices. The 128x64 GLCD is priced very competitively compared to other 4x20 serial character LCDs.

That's cool!

The Parallax thing on the screen shot had me wondering.

They were looking at carrying it so I did a demo for them. Here is a view of the back of the unit.



and some sample code (for Stamp - should be similar for PBP):

SEROUT 1, 396, [85]			' Auto Connect to display at 9600 Baud
					' Can be up to 256,000 Baud

SEROUT 1, 396, [186]		' Clears the screen

SEROUT 1, 396, [188,10,20]		' Position cursor at x10, y20 for text display
	
SEROUT 1, 396, ["Hello World",0]	' Print "Hello World", 0 terminates string

SEROUT 1, 396, [255,3,63,31,25,255]	' Draw a circle at x63, y31
						' Radius of circle is 25 pixels
						' 255 at beginning and end signifies graphics
						' "3" is for circle

SEROUT 1, 396, [255,2,20,10,100,50,255]	' Draw a rectangle from x20,y10 to x100,y50
						' "2" is for rectangle

SEROUT 1, 396, [255,4,30,0,30,60,255]	' Draw a vertical line from x30,y0 to x30,y60
						' "4" is for line

SEROUT 1, 396, [170,185]		' Set brightness level to 185 (from 0-255)
					' "170" is command to set backlight brightness
					' Value stored in EEPROM
