The sed1330 Driver
This section talks about using LCDproc with graphical LCD displays driven by
the EPSON/SMOS SED1330 or SED1335 LCD controllers, which may also be known by their
new names: S1D13300 (= SED1330) and S1D13305 (= SED1335).
The displays are driven in text mode using their built-in character generator
and the graphic mode for bars and the heartbeat icon (a bouncing ball).
Connections
Displays using SED1330/1335 chipset come in a variety of pin-outs and power
configurations. They usually require negative voltage for contrast and some
displays have a negative voltage generator onboard.
Connections below are for the G242C, G121C and G321D displays. Always consult
documentation about the specific display before assuming the connections given
here are also correct for your display!

The potentiometer should be connected like this on these display modules:
The G242C generates -24V internally. It is available on Vlc.
To generate -24 from the +5V without an external power source, you can
use the following circuit.
Keypad
The sed1330 driver supports the same direct keys and matrix keypad
connections as the hd44780 driver. See .
Configuration in LCDd.conf
[sed1330]
CellSize = ¶meters.size;
Specify the size of a character in pixels.
WIDTH may vary between 6 and 8;
legal values for HEIGHT range from 7 to
16.
If not given CellSize defaults to 6x10.
Contrary to other drivers the character size of an LCD using the sed1330
driver is not given directly. Instead it is determined by the pixel size
of the display, which is derived from the display type setting and the
character cell size specified with this setting.
ConnectionType =
{
classic |
bitshaker
}
Select the type of the wiring, see .
If not given, it defaults to classic.
Port =
PORT
Specify the address of the parallel port the LCD is connected to.
Common values for PORT are 0x278,
0x378 and 0x3BC.
If not given, it defaults to 0x278.

Type of LCD module. Besides other things (internal setup) this configuration setting
determines the size of the display in pixels.

Currently the G321D and SP14Q002 are the only ones that this driver is tested with.
