Hi

I am using a Bona 16*1 dot matrix LCD Module mc1601.

While initialising the LCD, I give the instructions as follows,with the following results ( "data" represents data being sent to the LCD).

1.mov data,#030h.......LCD does not initialise.
2. mov data,#034h......LCD does not initialise.
3. mov data,#038h......LCD does not initialise.
4. mov data #03ch......LCD initialises and displays only the first 8 characters.The subsequent characters are not displayed.


As per the standard instruction, since it is a one line display, with a 5*8 matrix, and a 8 bit data , I should be using the #30h instruction.

Can any one give ma a clue as to how do I get the LCD to initialise all the 16 characters?

Thanks
Pramod
