LCD Testing

| Comments

My LCD came in on Saturday from Adafruit. I would recommend them if you are looking for some kit type stuff. No hassles and fast shipping (from NY).

Here is the LCD with some wires that I soldered to it.

Adafruit included a library (which is awesome) that you can download from their github page. It comes with an example which is great for testing it out. I thought it was funny how they loaded their logo into the buffer when you load the library. It took me a second to figure out why I couldn’t use glcd.display(); without getting their logo to show. I have a feeling I will be tweaking the header file when I get some time.

That’s about a far as I got on Saturday night. Looking forward for the Arduino Pro 3.3v to come in this week.
