Product LCD-00569 | about 2 years ago
I am having the hardest time getting anything to run on my LCD from my Arduino MCU. It powers on up to a deep blue color which looks good but none of my commands have any effect. My unit, an SFE LCD + Break Out Board ordered Jan 2010, is a red PCB and the LCD arrived with a protective coating with a Red tab and a hologram sticker that says “GE” in capital letters. Jim Lynch’s tutorial (which is excellent) mentions GE-8 and GE-12 stickers but my LCD didn’t come with either. I’ve tried several permutations against my LCD with both variants of the Epson and Philips startup sequences with no luck. I’ve also loaded Cosmin Gorgovan’s library with no luck. In the interest of time does anyone know what controller the “GE” sticker, Red TAB on protective coating + Red SFE breakout PCB uses? Thanks!
