napierzaza Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 I only have a LC 2x20. Should I bother changing the number of items to 7 or is 5 enough? I'm not sure I want to bother with it but I've never seen the interface. I don't have anything other than a 2x20 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. zip Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 I thought MIOS used a 2x20 by default? When I had mine together, I used a 2x20 no problem, don't think I had to go through and change + recompile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nILS Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 16 characters = 4 items. 20 characters = 5 items.Your choice. You should use 5 items though, more items == better.I'm just really curious how you wanna display 7 items on a 2x20 ???And, yes, the default is 2x20 (5 items) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
napierzaza Posted May 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Oh, well the SID page said that it was default for 2x16 and the default items were 5. Anyhow it doesn't matter, I didn't really think I need more than five anyhow.The front panel uses a much smaller LCD from what I can tell though, way shorter than mine.Thanks.

stryd_one Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Oh, well the SID page said that it was default for 2x16 and the default items were 5I wanted to correct that, but I can't find it. Where's that? All I can find is this: "It consists of a 2x20 LCD" below a pic with 5 items, and later on, this: "Alternatively a 2x16 LCD can be used (of costs do matter). This is no optimal solution, as the main page won't be displayed completely anymore. Within menu pages only 4 instead of 5 parameters are visible the same time (page has to be scrolled to see the remaining parameters of the same page)."That's from the control surface page.

napierzaza Posted May 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Argh, you're right, I can't find it. Perhaps I was remembering that it said you could use the 2x16 and then saw the really small hole in the panel design layout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
