I'm looking at getting one of these displays and using it with a BX24 chip. I will be using it in a Heads Up Display window for automotive use. The problem with this is that I need each character reversed so it will properly display on the windshield. I would also like the characters to be the height of 2 rows. I'm guessing this involves creating each of my characters "by hand"

I saw the stamp example and was wondering if there are any samples of BX24 code that I can use to fit the needs listed above.

Thanks

Our vacuum fluorescent modules have a pre-determined font. If the character(s) that you want to use are not available you can create up to 8 custom characters. Please see section 3.2 of the following link for a complete built-in character font: http://www.matrixorbital.com/manuals/ht ... /index.htm

A quick example on how to create a custom character is as follows:

Example of a degree symbol:

txUart.sendByte(0xFE); //command prefix
txUart.sendByte('N'); //custom character command
txUart.sendByte(0x00); //custom character value 0-7
txUart.sendByte(12); //8 bytes to create
txUart.sendByte(18 ); //the custom character
txUart.sendByte(18 );
txUart.sendByte(12);
txUart.sendByte(0);
txUart.sendByte(0);
txUart.sendByte(0);
txUart.sendByte(0);

txUart.sendByte(0x00); //display custom character 0
