the original font of the HD44780 with European character set, but includes
only characters from ISO 8859-1 and has been extended with bar graph and icons.
The t6963 driver now has its size to be configured in pixels! The size in
characters is automatically calculated based on the cell size. This makes
internal calculations more easy.
Fix heartbeat and bignum by mapping character 0 to 8.
Fix backlight and contrast handling (by M. T. Jones).
Add more icons (by M. T. Jones).
Add OffBrightness for 20x4 (idea by S. Crane).
Add range checking for config settings.
- Limit the maximum size to 40x16 (240x128 pixel) and change the RAM locations
to make use of 8 KB only. (If one's display is larger and has more memory this
may have to be changed.)
- Drive control lines using defines from lpt-port.h without using a function.
- Use timing.h for delays (which are now optional).
- Remove any use of the graphic area and mode settings, except for optionally
clearing of graphic memory on start-up.
- Remove any cursor related stuff.
- Handle displays correctly which width (in pixels) is not a multiple of the
cellwidth (e.g. 128x64).
- Remove double buffering (display updates are already really fast).
- Update text and font memory using AUTO WRITE function.
- Remove the bignum stub. Now at least something is displayed.
- Fix character offset for bar graphs.
- Make local functions static and inline the most commonly used read / write
functions.
- Add a structure describing known models, their features and default settings.
- Use partial screen updates for newer CFA633 versions.
- For CFA533/633 use the same character mapping as for HD44780.
- Fixed a few typos.
- Use C-style comments only.
- Add a warning about the driver being deprecated to CFontz633. Users should
use CFontzPacket with Model=633 instead.
- Fixed vbar & hbar - Allowed for displays with 2 custom characters
- Fixed cursor off - 16H - Data sheet for CU20045SCPB has error -> Cursor Off 14,16,17H
- Tested with CU40026SCPB-T20A - 40x2 - Hardware Defaults to 19200 8E1
- Added new config parameter [Parity] to set serial data parity 0(none),1(odd),2(even)
- Added config parameter OffBrightness
- added support for big numbers
