Basic4ppc and Graphic LCD Modules
I bought this display from Sparkfun
electronics. It has a Microchip microcontroller on board. It works via pre-set
serial commands.
I powered it up and added a
Bluetooth device to the serial lines.
Using Basic4ppc on my O2 XDA PPC I have full control over it. This should work on the desktop as well.
This
Basic4ppc source code here , allows you to open
84x48 BMP files, convert them and upload them to the LCD.
Text support and line drawing is
also supported. Here's the user manual for the display.
128x64 and 2/4 line x16 displays
This source
code here is for the
desktop. It gives full graphic and text options to both sorts of display via
serial control.
Obviously your display must be wired to some serial enabled microcontroller first.
