Save backlight information

Post by iscarelli »

Hi!

There is any form to save the backlight "position"?

I want to turn off PC with BL off and when I turn on the BL continues off.

Hi!

I am using a HD44780 with this controller: http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=115461

It's based on Matrix Orbital.

I don't know if the set&save backlight command is implemented in ch424's project, but you can try this in a terminal emulation program:

send this to the LCD:
dec: 254, 152, 0 or
hex: 0xFE, 0x98, 0x00

you could try typing Alt-numpad of the decimal numbers ;)

If it works, the display will stay unlit until smartie sets the backligt.
