4 digit 7 segment display with a pt6961 chip

Markdahplumber

Hi i just started to get back into programming my basic stamp 2 and for the last 4 nights have been trying to figure this display out and have been reading tons of awesome books and will post new updates if I figure more things about the
tofd-5465ggh display.

I have the pt6961 pdf and code
I know it reads LSB instead of MSB and the chip mounted on the display is similar to a max7219
I love learning the basicstamp2
here is my code test the pins on the tofd 5465ggh are 1= ground 2 = DOUT 3= DIN 4 = CLK 5 = STB or load 6 = VDD 5v

If you are here and are using a Arduino there is a couple pages with code and info if you search google for tofd-5465ggh

Okay I have so far got this code to work and still learning to shorten it but this works on my BS2 and only shows 0-F on all 4 digits. I am no pro at writing code but learning and this is just my test code so far. I am sure the pro's can make this code work even better and use only 3 lines.
well its sweet its working atleast with help from Gblanton




When you buy china displays like the Tofd-5465ggh-b you better have a bucket of tylenol !
