Matrix user forums

Good morning Matrix people. I bought this RX1602A4-BIW-TS 2x16 lcd display based on the ST7032i chip. So far no one of the lcd IIC dispays I tried worked...Did I do something wrong or the code it just not compatible? And if is not, can you write a new component please?
Best regards
Sakis

Hello Sakis,

I don't beleive we currently support the ST7032 driver IC but yes it should be possible to add it.

Are you able to send us a display to help develop the code and for testing purposes?

If not I can have a go at a component but it makes things more tricky to get right.

Good morning Beb,
sure I can do it! It is a nice and small display. Just give me an address...
Best regards
Sakis

Hello Sakis,

Display received, many thanks for that.

I'll get to work on it ASAP and let you know when I have some progress.

Hopefully later this week.

Thank you Ben!

Hello,

Component has now been created and tested. I've now pushed it to the update system, just do a full database update in v8 and you should get the new component.

I had problems using internal weak pull ups on the I2C pins, you need external 10K pullups for it to work nicely.

Let me know how you get on.

I will!! Thank you Ben!

I just give it a go and it goes fine! Thank you Ben again! I own you a bottle of ouzo from Greece...
