Trying to use the app with a VFD

Post by MD_Willington »

Hey there, I have the exact VFD that is in one of your links for proper wiring. I've tried it on an XP machine and a W98SE machine, the application will run but I get nothing on the VFD...I'm stumped, the VFD does function as I've tested it in another device that uses the same VFD.

Wiring was checked twice by 2 different individuals..

Stumped

Try another program so you can tell if it's a software or hardware problem. There are links to others programs on the main site.
