I am trying to use a Freescale 9s12 connected to a Hantronix hdg-12864l-6 COD display. The controller is a KS0724 (serial input). My problem is I can't seem to find where or how to start using LCDinfo. 1) do I need to buy a board and lcd that works with LCDinfo, or buy the software somewhere? Link to a beta version in a thread, but don't see a download site. There are a lot of posts about hooking up usb and parallel connections. None of which I am using. 2)when I install and run LCDinfo I get a small green icon in the system tray; when I right click and select driver there are no drivers to select. When I tell it to load GUI, it says 'GUI not available'. 3) I would like to create a display of a guage and some alpha numeric text, this seems to be reasonable from the posts but how I can figure out. Any help would be much appreciated... thank you. Bob Lewis |

LCDinfo is only usable with displays hooked up to LPT (some USB). If you use your own microcontroller you'll need to write your own code. |

Yes thank you I realize that, but I would like to start by connecting the lcd to a pc LPT from there I can write the driver I need. But to do that I need to be able to run the program on a pc and find out how to connect the lcd to the port and I can't get it to run. I also can't seem to find any doc set about set up the. |
