Hi,

I am new to the Netduino and have just ordered the LCD that you recommended from sparkfun. I am trying get the code ready to use for when it arrives. I also am a newbie to the C# programing language. I have tried creating the class and the program from your examples. I am getting quite a few erros and I dont know how to correct them. Could you give some pointers on this? Atached is a screen shot of the errors when I try to build the solution.

Thanks,
Jeff


Hi Jeff.

Did you include the namespace of "my" SerLCD class? If you didn't change the name of the namespace you should add this at the top of your implementation:
using LXIT.Hardware;
If you changed the name of the namespace, change it here accordingly.

Did you do some C# (or even VB.NET) coding yet or is it totally new?

Kind regards,
Niels

Thanks for this thread! I was able to get my own display working using the SerLCD backpack. I spent an hour frustratingly trying to get things working, to realize there was a contrast adjustment on the back of the SerLCD. Hopefully that helps the next guy who has this problem, try cranking it up/down to see if that helps your display! Thanks again Niels
