GLCD source code COMPLETED!!

glcd_init_bp5

Hello all,

I'm using a PIC18F8520 MCU, MicroC IDE and a 128x64 GLCD. With the in-built library functions the GLCD is working fine, but I want to use code without using the library functions for portability reasons. Please help me with the source code to simply initialize the GLCD and display a character for now. Thank you in advance.
This is my code as of now and is not working:

#define GLCD_DI PORTJ.F2
#define GLCD_RW PORTJ.F3
#define GLCD_EN PORTJ.F4
#define GLCD_CS1 PORTJ.F0
#define GLCD_CS2 PORTJ.F1
#define GLCD_RST PORTJ.F5
#define GLCD_DATA PORTD

#define X_ADRESS 0xB8 // Adress base for Page 0
#define Y_ADRESS 0x40 // Adress base for Y0
#define START_LINE 0xC0 // Adress base for line 0
#define DISPLAY_ON 0x3F // Turn display on
#define DISPLAY_OFF 0x3E // Turn display off

#define RIGHT 0
#define LEFT 1
#define BUSY 0x80

Delay_ms( 10 );

Code Working!! A little more tuning and I'l have the entire working code. Will update the code once I'm done. Cheers!

 

[Deepak350]

I finally have the perfect woking complete code for the GLCD. Will post it if anyone requires it.. Cheers

 

[DarkAng3L]

I need it.
Thank you in advance.
