Coding for ID 498 LCD

Post by BigR_1 »

I have went gone through the datasheet and the HD44780 controller but I cannot seem to figure out how to put my text on each line.
The the HD44780 controller document goes through a series on instructions on writing to the display but does not give an example of how to put text on the next line and there are four lines you can put text on with this display.

I cannot find the register to set the next line address such as found on pages 40 through 44.

This is the text I want to write to ID 498 RGB background LCD display

Line 1:
Channel 1

Line 2:
Channel 2

Line 4:
Bat

Can any one help me with this is issue?

Thank you.

Are you using Arduino code or python? Take a look at the learn page https://learn.adafruit.com/character-lcds#overview
