LCD wiring to Program port
I am in the process of wiring up a BPP-420 LCD to the Program port on our RC for use with Kevin Watson's serial port code. I have pin 3 of the serial connector connected to the data pin on the LCD, I have the +5 pin from a digital I/O connected to the +5 pin on the LCD, and I have pin 5 and the ground from a digital I/O connected to the ground pin on the LCD. Is this the proper wiring? I couldn't find an actual pinout of the Program port, so I just went with the RS-232 standard, but I want to make sure it's right before I power it up.
