Rikk, thanks :-) my contrast problem was the one described here (and solved) here: http://www.lcdforums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?topic=277&forum=1&9 For some odd reason I managed to loose the display all together, but fixed it. Lesson learned ;-) Seems unrelated to your problem though. Well ...

So much fun, Im tempted to c...

Nice challenge indeed..lol.. building a plugin to work with qstat should be quite easy, as all you have to do is call qstat with the needed parameters and parse the output (I know, I know, Im oversimplifying a bit maybe, but trust me, it is not hard or magical) . Reading actively from the game runni...

Hi there,

Check the manual for the display. It's pretty well documented. The keypad connector is setup as a matrix with rows and columns.

So, what you want to do is connect a row and a column pin with a momentary-style button which connects the 2 when it's pressed.

Cheers, Whoosh

Just wondering, how about including a pro forma invoice that would state 'samples' with a $0 value ? That would do away with both VAT and importtax ;-)

Best regards

Thanks a bunch for the info! With 750mA per GPO the PSU would be the limiter :-) and noted using a normal diode instead of a LED. You are right, I wouldnt connect the CPU fan to a GPO, but probably all casefans. Does anyone know whether the GPO's are defaulted to on or off and if this default can be...

Hi there, I have been reading several manuals for the LK204-205 series of LCD's which looks very interesting, especially the GPO's and the fact that they have a serial connection which should be easy to program and operate under the whole variety of Windows OS's. After reading the manual for the PC ...
