Hi Derelique,

No, LCDC plugins will not work with LCD Smartie and vice versa.

Hi PilchY,

Thanks for getting a LK292-24-USB-WB, the drivers are located in the hardware forum, under a stickied thread called USB DRIVERS!!!

G78,

You will just need to open up another LCDC. This will create another LCDC application. You will then set up the unit for the correct definition file and com port in the Configuration/test section. Test out the unit, and you should be good to go afterwards.

If you have anymore questions or concerns, please feel free to post.

:D

Ok, so 2 time LCDC software open..
One for each lcd screen...
How would it recognise each one seperatly, if it was two identical MX6?
Do they use a different coms port each?

Yup, each MX will create its own virtual COM Port.

thats another question.. how much ressources lcdc and MX6 takes to run smoothly... How would it run with two? Could there be bugs appearing having two running at the same time?

Like right now.. MX6+lcdc and the zephyrus kit... they really dont like each others.. Or the drivers for the zephyrus really sucks.

G78,

When you open another LCDC, it will be opened as a seperate LCDC, and the icon will have a number over it to indicate the different LCDC applications. LCDC doesn't take much resources, but it will also depend on what plugins or amount of plugins the program is using. You would be able to find better answers to LCDC at the LCDC forum at http://forums.lcdc.cc/index.php?showforum=6

I have ran two LCDC applications, and I haven't had any problems with it though.

If you have anymore questions or concerns, please feel free to post.

Best Regards,
