Hi, I need to place the cursor in the LK204-25-PC LCD module on column 5 and row 5...how could I do that? what is the format for this
Right now I have, but is does not work...can any one explain the reason why?

tx_out(0xFE);
tx_out(5); // col
tx_out(2); // row
Thanks!

you are not issuing the cursor possition command, just the location.

Henry I noticed that, after I posted this message, but it still does not work.
Do I need to declare some kind of array with pointer... I am brand new at this so please bare with me.

tx_out(0xFE);
tx_out('G');
tx_out(5); // col
tx_out(2); // row

thanks

Can you get the display to respond when issuing other commands, such as backlight off/on??
