How to hook up this lcd ?

[astro_boy]

I got this LCD out of an old device.
I've played with a two line lcd and LCD smartie before but it only had 16 contacts.
This lcd has 18, and doing some searhcing on the model number doesn't turn up much.
All i coudl find out is its 128x64

Any suggestions on hwo to wire this up?

You'd have to locate the datasheet first, then hope it has a controller chip, then program some sort of microcontroller to translate a serial protocol to the display.
Then use a modified Smartie to display 8 rows

It can be a nice DIY project but you are mostly on your own.

Thanks,
I thought it might be a little too indepth for myself unlike the 2 line lcds.
