Hermes Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 Hi I am building my MIOS midibox 64 "Hammond B-3" (I plan to adjust my design to the control needs of the NI B-4 Hammond Organ software emulation). 8)At the moment I have most of the parts, but I am not sure which lcd to buy. I want either a 2 x 16 char. or a 4 x 16 char. backlit lcd. The questions are: 1) can I use a bigger lcd (i.e. 4 x 20 char.) for the midibox 64 (MIOS)? 2) Must I necessarily use a lcd compatible with the Hitachi HD44780 standard, or can I use any type of 2/4 x 16/20 char.? ???Thanks in advanceDimitris-Btw. thanks again to everyone who has replied to my previous postings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK. Posted November 12, 2003 Report Share Posted November 12, 2003 Hi Dimitris,you can assume that every character LCD on the market is compatible to HD44780, even if they are sold under another name (like KS00070)Douglas has integrated a special page for 4x20 display into the MB64 application, it will be published with the next release.Best Regards, Thorsten.
