    Yes.· You didn't say which Stamp model·you have.· If you have a member of the BS2p family, then have a look in the manual/help file under LCDCMD, LCDOUT, and LCDIN.· If you have another module you can still connect it, you've just got to write manual code for access.· I've attached a demo that should get you going.

    hey microman,


    i just did this about 1 hour ago so i have lots of little hints, well actuialy i have 2, use the schematic found on P. 238 in the BASIC Stamp manual or P. 242 in this document whic can be found here (which is the BS manual in a .pdf) and with Mr. Wiliams permision i will post the code he gave me for a BS2 or you can use the attached code for a BS2P!

    have fun,
    -mm

    The controller on that chip is compatible with the code I provided above. The connections are in the program. For a schematic, look in the PBASIC help file under LCDCMD.

    hey,

    if you use that code with the schematic in the PB manual be sure to change E to pin 0 under the pin definitions
