Am I missing something? I can't get this display to update its screens as quickly as my LK-204-25 display. Using LCDC and have tried many different baud rates to no avail.

TIA

What do youe mean by really slow? It should be capable of updating at about the same speed as a lk204 (takes about 250ms for one update)

It takes about 10 seconds to change from one screen to another. This is with random effects on. I also notice LCDC is much more sluggish when using the GLK12232 display. I also lose fonts intermittently and have to reload them. Do I have a bum display ?

The Flow control in LCDC makes the transistion take a long time and also makes LCDC sluggish... this is normal, if you only use the 'flip' transistion you won't have any screen changing problems.

As for randomly losing fonts??? Well hmm, your supply volateg nice and stable?

Hey Cheeseman :grin: Thanks for the info that worked Great:) As for the fonts I narrowed it down to having the wrong baud rate set at the display, and then runnig LCDC. Get all garbled display(expected)and then losing a font. I guess it must just corrupt the memory when this baud rate mismatch happens. Thanks Again :grin:
