LCD noob

Rafael

I have a BS2 with a LCD Terminal AppMod. I have a number stored in a variable and want the variable to be displayed on the LCD.

I looked through the StampWorks manual but I couldn't really find a relevant example.

Does anyone have a sample program or code that display the contents of a variable on an LCD.

Have you looked at the documentation? There is a very thorough example there. The links are on the Parallax webstore page (www.parallax.com/Store/Accessories/Displays/tabid/159/CategoryID/34/List/0/Level/a/ProductID/53/Default.aspx?SortField=ProductName%2cProductName).

To output the proper digits, you could use something like this (with the routines from the example program):

for i = 4 to 0
   char = (number dig i) + "0"
   gosub lcd_write_char
next i

You could modify this to handle negative numbers or to suppress leading zeros.
