1.4 Connecting to a PC The GLK24064-25 connects seamlessly to a PC and it is an excellent means of testing the functionality and uploading new fonts and bitmaps. You will require a standard RS-232 9-pin serial cable such as the one pictured in figure 6 on page 3, as well as a modified 5V power adapter such as the one pictured in figure 3 on page 2. In order to connect your display to a personal computer follow these easy instructions: 1. Plug the serial cable into the com port you wish to use. 2. C

2.1.1 Power Through DB-9 Jumper In order to provide power through pin 9 of the DB-9 Connector you must place a solder jumper on the Power through DB-9 Jumper pictured in figure 13 below. The GLK24064-25 allows all voltage models to use the power through DB-9 option, see table 1 on the following page for display module voltage requirements. Figure 13: Power Through DB-9 Jumper WARNING Do not apply voltage through pin 9 of the DB-9 connector AND through the Power/Data Connector at the same time. 2.

Similarly, in order to change the display to TTL mode, simply remove the zero ohm resistors from the 232 2 or I C jumpers and solder them to the TTL jumpers. Figure 16: Protocol Select Jumpers 2.4 Keypad Interface Connector The GLK24064-25 provides a Keypad Interface Connector which allows for up to a five by five matrix style keypad to be directly connected to the display module. Key presses are generated when a short is detected between a row and a column. When a key press is generated a charact

2.5 Manual Override The Manual Override is provided to allow the GLK24064-25 to be reset to factory defaults. This can be 2 particularly helpful if the display module has been set to an unknown baud rate or I C Slave Address and you are no longer able to communicate with it. If you wish to return the module to its default settings you must: 1. Power off the display module. 2. Place a Jumper on the Manual Override pins 1 and 2 as pictured below. 3. Power up the display module. 4. The display modu

2.6 Filesystem Lock Jumper The File System Lock Jumper allows you to lock the file system on the GLK24064-25 so that no fonts or bitmaps can be either written or deleted from the on board memory. This feature is useful in order to protect data integrity of production units, if protection of other settings is required see Section 12.1. To lock the file system, solder a zero ohm resistor or use a solder jumper on the Filesystem Lock Jumper pictured in figure 19 below. Figure 19: File System Lock Jump

² Second, please ensure that the display module is set to communicate on the protocol that you are using, by checking the Protocol Select Jumpers. To change the protocol used by the display module see Section 2.3 on page 10. ² Third, ensure that the host system and display module are both communicating on the same baud rate. The default baud rate for the display module is 19200 bps. 2 ² If you are communicating to the display via I C please ensure that the data is being sent to the correct addre

4 Communications 4.1 Introduction 2 The commands listed in this chapter describe how to configure data flow on the RS232/TTL and I C port. The display has built in flow control which may be useful when long strings of text are downloaded to the display. Flow control is enabled or disabled by two commands. If flow control is enabled, the display will return an "almost full" message (0xFE) to the controller when its internal buffer fills to a defined level, and an "almost empty" message (0xFF) when the
