WINCOR-NIXDORF 2X20

Post by audirowdy »

Hello,
I have a VFD Wincor-Nixdorf 2x20 (noritake "cu20029-t325a").
My Problem: it shows only garbage on. I've already tested a variety of settings, but unfortunately without success.
Do I need anything at this Dislplay special note in the settings (testdriver,...) ?

thx for help

If nobody else has this display then it's up to you to find the displays datasheet and extract the useful info from there and put it in the testrdriver.ini file.

Thank you for pointing this out.
The display can also be controlled, but only the last character in the first row changes.
This is how the config looks like:

Code: Select all

[Communication Settings]
[s]DisplayDLLName=testdriver.dll
DisplayDLLParameters=COM53,9600,8,ODD,1
Parity=1
Init=27,82,53,27,91,50,74
Fini=27,91,50,74
GotoLine1=27,91,49,59,49,72
GotoLine2=27,91,50,59,49,72
Baudrate=9600
COMPort=53
USBPalm=0
ParallelPort=888
HDAlternativeAddressing=0
HDKS0073Addressing=0
HDTimingMultiplier=1
MX3USB=0
HTTPProxy=
HTTPProxyPort=0
RemoteHost=localhost[/s]
Could someone help me with this?

Ok found the error in thinking. For all who are interested.
Create in the LCDSmartie main directory where the .EXE is located a text file with the name "testdriver.ini" make sure that this text file is saved as file type "All Files" and not as TXT file.
In this INI file you simply put the code of GORGAR.
Then save it.
Restart the program and it should work
