I use atmega32 (16mhz), avr studio 6, and an avr usb programmer
My LCD is 16X2 JDH162A

I successfully made a code for writing to an LCD...but when I tried making for writing to a specific location,
all I was able to do was move the cursor to a specific location, but not able to write on that location..

the program compiled successfully, but I could not burn the program on the microcontroller..
it produced some sort of error :https://obrazki.elektroda.pl/4505256400_1355675700.png


Code:
void gotoxy(unsigned int x,unsigned int y)
{
   unsigned char t=0;
	if(y==0)
	  t=0;
	  else 
	    t=64;  
		
		t=t+x-1;
    
	Send_A_Command(t);

}



CAn someone help me out??
I have also uploaded the .c fileView attachment lcd_phd.rar

LCD controllers have different codes for 'command' and for 'data'.

It looks like you are only sending commands ( Send_A_Command() ). Where are you sending any data ?!?
Please check & report..

all the best !

That was the code for gotoxy()

Here is my main routine:


Code:
int main(void)
{
	DataDir_MrLCDsControl |= 1<<LightSwitch | 1<<ReadWrite | 1<<BiPolarMood;
	
           _delay_ms(15);

	Send_A_Command(0x01); //Clear Screen 0x01 = 00000001
	//delay
	
	Send_A_Command(0x38);    //set up interface length
       //delay
	
	Send_A_Command(0b00001111);   //turn on the lcd. enble cursor, enable blinking 
	
	
  
		 gotoxy(5,2);
	

          Send_A_String("Hi!!");
	
	while(1)
	{
			
	}


}


PS: most of the code has taken from another code by Patrick Hood Daniels, on you tube
