#120347 - Yes I realise this!
Responding to: ???'s previous message

Jan,

My assembler has no problem with determining whether A is a register or direct address! I use the AD2500 assembler.

Nevertheless, a valid point. As most of us realise, my method was generic in that the port pins do not need to be sequential or on the same port group. Nor was it intended to be the fastest in terms of cpu cycles. Steve's is probably the most direct means, but you need to be careful of the other 4 bits on the port!.

As for polling the busy bit - this seems to be a bit of a contentious issue. If you poll the busy bit, you need to add a timeout as the displays can and do die.
