    Hello,

    ·· This is a Parallel LCD Display.· There is a project in the StampWorks manual that covers this kind of interface.· A link to the book is posted below.· You can download this book in PDF format from the link at the bottom of the page.

    While the Datasheet is a bit vague on the control pins, it lists all te commands in section 5...

    If you want to know more about the assorted control pins, check the datasheet for the controller chip:

    Which BS2 model do you have?
    It is possible that this one is compatible with the LCDOUT command of the later models...

    There are a few Nuts and Volts columns showing you how to connect a parallel interface LCD (which you have), and also StampWorks (which you can download at www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=27220 ) has info on how to connect/program the LCD.

    As Chris pointed out, we have lots of LCD resources as LCDs are one of the most cost-effective and flexible display devices we can attach to a BASIC Stamp.· I used code from our LCD AppMod project to convert your BS2p code to the BS2.· Have fun.
