Nokia 5110 LCD Module

[duino]

I followed exactly your Arduino instructions from the wiki but all I get is the blue background light, otherwise the module seems dead. There is no visible change besides that the background lighting is on. I suspect that it is dead on arrival, how can I check? I tripe checked all the connections according to the wiki page.

Hi friend,

Do you use the correct library LCD5110_Basic (for Arduino) http://www.henningkarlsen.com/electroni ... .php?id=44
Could you provide us your wiring diagram?

With the linked library, I get the following error in Arduino 1.0.1 (tested both on Fedora 17 and Mac OS X 10.7):

Code: Select all

For the wiring, please see the picture in the attachment.

Using Arduino 0023 it works, so it is a software issue and the hardware is working well.

Thank you very much for your support!
