(I know I have started a similar thread in the programming forum, but this concerns the electrical side of the project , so I feel that this thread should be here.)
I am working on a project for our future FRC robots. I want to create a GUI through an LCD module for program selection, autonomous selection, system testing etc. We thought of buying a serial interface touch panel LCD, but found them to be too expensive. Instead, I found an old LCD module in our robotics lab.
Here is the schematic for it:
Intech ITM 2004a. Because it is not a regular serial interface LCD, I couldn't figure out how to connect it to the RC. I would really appreciate any help I can get with this. Basically I just want to get it hooked up to the RC (preferably through the programming port and not the TTL serial port) so it will print the text I tell it to. Later I will connect regular digital switches so I can navigate through menus etc.
Thanks in advance
