Ex : PIC18F4450-I/P</p>

Bought this PIC-MT-USB and the recommended 16F877A. Would greatly appreciate if someone could provide basic step-by-step first time through instructions on how to load and run the MT-USB example code via the USB connection to Win7 PC (no RS232 port). Do I need to put a bootloader on the 16F877A first? If so, can I do that with the USB connection to the PIC-MT-USB?</p>

This is the lcd controller<br>
HD44780U<br>
And here is a working code for this device:<br>

You have to change these pins to fit your this board like that:<br>
#define LCD_DB4 PIN_D4<br>
#define LCD_DB5 PIN_D5<br>
#define LCD_DB6 PIN_D6<br>
#define LCD_DB7 PIN_D7<br>
#define LCD_E PIN_D2<br>
#define LCD_RS PIN_D0<br>
#define LCD_RW PIN_D1<br>
And the LCD LIGHT is on PIN_D3<br>
The code is for the CCS C compiler.<br>
