Using i2c to connect it to an Uno, I run the following simple sketch (taken from the LCD reference page on arduino.cc):
Code: Select all
#include <Wire.h>
#include <LiquidCrystal.h>
LiquidCrystal lcd(0);
byte smiley[8] = {
B00000,
B10001,
B00000,
B00000,
B10001,
B01110,
B00000,
};
void setup() {
lcd.createChar(0, smiley);
lcd.begin(16, 2);
lcd.write(0);
}
void loop() {}
I can get a photo of it, but was wondering if anyone has used createChar() successfully on a backpack.
