HI all,

I found this LCD laying around and I'm curious to if I can get LCD Smartie to run on it. It's put of a 5 1/4" mounted fan control / temp sensor unit.

There is a 4 pin conector on the back for 2v/GND/GND/5v , as well as the pins the temp probes ect clipped onto.

What size would it be also.

Sorry the pics are a bit blurry, and asking such noob questions.

Thanks

The LCD bit of it doesn't look like the standard dot-matrix alphanumeric LCDs that Smartie is designed for. At a guess, it's a custom LCD panel made specifically for the temp/fan monitoring unit.

Do you know what sort of layout the display has - what symbols, numbers etc it can display? Are there any product code numbers or model numbers printed on the circuit board? I think I see a white label in one of the pics.
