Hi
First, I hope you will understand my english
I have a LK202-25-V display that I bought with all items (serial cable, modified Y power cable,...)
I plugged this module with no damage and tried some programs on Windows and Linux without problems (Winamp plugin, LCDproc, Matrix Demo,...)
I'm not a developper but I would like to write a "scoreboard" program for the game Unreal Tournament.
I made some output tests with Visual Basic without problems too (write text, bar graph,...)
But, since I tried "auto scroll on/wrap on" (I think I sent bad parameters to the module), I see only garbage characters, even when I turn off the power for a long time.
The Winamp plugin and Matrix demo don't work properly now, but the module receives the datas and writes these strange characters
I tried different parameters with no success
I found in the documentation a "manual override" but I'm not sure it can help me and I don't want to make an error with the jumper and "kill" my LCD (if it's not too late already).
I hope someone can help me, thanks in advance...
