matrigs Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 i am not sure how lcd's work but if i understand correctly it has all the different character signs written in it's memory - horizontal and this it's not possible to make them vertical?please correct me if i'm wrong - this would actually change my midibox layout quite drastically :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screaming_Rabbit Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 ... depends on what kind of LCD- Graphical: Yes http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=midibox_uc- Character: No (you don't want short but fat characters... right? - You would get characters 7 Dots wide and 5 Dots high)Greats, Roger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matrigs Posted January 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 okay - there was this idea add a big 4x40 lcd screen to my box, vertical on the left of all my potentiometers.graphical displays won't be a good idea in this case.i guess i'll have to use multiple small screens.

matrigs Posted January 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 is it actually possible to use two T6963C screens on one midibox, like it's possible with character lcd's?the thing is that i need just a solution for my new midibox projekt that would allow me to have a screen on the left of my box which will ha 21 cm length and coul display about 4 characters in a row.

ilmenator Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 For each GLCD you will need one PIC. See e.g. the MIDIbox UC in the Wiki.http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=midibox_ucBest regards, ilmenator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matrigs Posted January 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 ah i guess i'll try the solution with multiple small screens if i find any free pins on my pic :> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
