[SOLVED] Running Banner or string On 16x2 lcd

[Sudhp]

Hi Experts,

I want to know that "Is this possible to show a running banner on 16x2 lcd".

Is there any command which can make the string in moving condition as done in many platforms on bigger lcd's.

By running banner I assume you mean scrolling text? This can be done (I don't recall is this is a built in LCD function) but you can program this to scroll over. Basically you would load you text you want to scroll and start adding the letters one at a time while shifting the position to the left dragging the later with it.

hello,


Do you want horizontal scrolling letter by letter ..very easy
or pixel by pixel ! a bit more complicated !

No, You have to do it manually

hello,

if you have a HD44780 compliant LCD
you can use the command Cursor or display shift
Shift step is one letter ..

with RS=0 RW=0
Data= 0001 S/C R/L x x
R=Right Cde=0x1C
L=LEFT Cde=0x18

MikroC include theses commands
Lcd8_Cmd(_LCD_SHIFT_LEFT);
Lcd8_Cmd(_LCD_SHIFT_RIGHT);
