Using LK204-25-WB LCD with BS2p24

I am having problems getting this LCD to do what I want. My code clears the screen and displays some startup text, but when I cycle the power on and off, sometimes it will not clear the logo off of the screen. I can hit the reset button on the stamp and it does what it is supposed too. Is there an amount of time to wait before sending commands to the LCD? If so how much time. I have tried putting a 2 to 5 second pause at the beginning of the program, but sometimes that doesn't work. I know there is a simple solution. Any help would be appreciated.

    Iryjoyce,

    You will need a delay in the beginning of power up to allow the display to initialize. Some people put a 500mS delay in front. Do you want it started up with just a blank screen? If you do then you can change the start screen. The command is 254,64,[noparse][[/noparse]80 characters].
