Serial LCD (by Kumar)
Hi,

Kumar here from Malaysia. I've a problem with the message display on the lcd.
Currently, i'm using 16 x 2 serial LCD (from Sparkfun Electronics), where the message will driven via a PIC16F628A. The problem is, every time when the LCD receive the message from the chip, it just continue. What i want is,
when every time the LCD receive a string, it should start back from the first beginning line of the LCD. Is it possible? Hopefully someone can help me.Thanks.

Hi Kumar

What i have done is to send 32 characters for each message...So if a message has say 10 characters i pad the rest of the message with 22 with space characters...

Hi Frank,

Kumar here. I did as what you've said, by adding space characters. I got it & it's working fine. Thanks a lot.
