MOS AL 162 Stopped Displaying Text
Posted: Sun Nov 22, 2009 11:50 am
Hi,
I have a MOS-AL-162A that I've been using for a while in the same configuration that it's in now. After accidentally leaving it connected to the UART on my arduino board while it was being programmed, the screen was filled with junk characters and some of the settings were changed. The display still responds to commands such as contrast and brightness changes, but these changes are not remembered when the power is reset, and more importantly, it can't display text anymore.
Is there any way to save it? Is it possible to just turn it into a parallel screen by removing the additional board with the atmel chip on it?
Thanks in advance
