The LCD panel module (LCM) is designed to provide real-time operating status and configuration
information for the system. For sample LCM code, please go to
the Lanner Support Website at
http://www.lannerinc.com/download-center/
and browse the
download center
for the driver and the
program library can also be found in the folder.
The system supports the following 2 kinds of LCM:
• Parallel Text-based LCM: The LCM connects to the motherboard’s parallel port. The LCD screen can
display 2 lines, 16 (or 20) characters per line.
• USB and Serial Text or Graphic-based LCM: Our next generation LCM. Lanner engineers design a common
source code to be deployed on these two differently interfaced LCM modules. Jumpers are used to select
between text and graphic types. See next section.
To build program source code on Linux platform, please use the following steps as a guideline:
1.
Extract the source file:
# tar -xzvf plcm_drv_v0XX.tgz
(0XX is the version of the program.)
2.
Change directory to the extracted folder:
# cd plcm_drv_v0XX
(0XX is the version of the program.)
Note
: Apply our Parallel Text-based LCM to the environment of virtualization, please use the
version 013 or above of the program.
3.
Type “make” to build source code:
# make
After compiling, the executable programs (plcm_test, plcm_cursor_char, ppdev_test, Test) and the driver
(plcm_drv.ko) will appear in the program’s folder.
Note
: The OS supported by Parallel Text-based LCM function includes platforms based on Linux
Kernel series 2.4.x, Linux Kernel series 2.6.x and Linux Kernel series 3.0.x or above.
Install the driver and create a node in the /dev directory by:
#insmod plcm_drv.ko
#mknod /dev/plcm_drv c 248 0
