Hi, or a problem with the PCF8574 (LCD) I'm using wiringPi lib, I run the program from no mistake but it does not write anything on the LCD, where it is wrong, this and the code.
rasberri:
ocess_Globals
Public LCD_ROWS As Int = 2
Public LCD_COLUMNS As Int= 16
Public LCD_BITS As Int = 4
Private BUS_1 As Int = 1
Private RS As Int = 0
Private RW As Int = 1
Private EN As Int = 2
Private LED As Int = 3
Private D4 As Int = 4
Private D5 As Int = 5
Private D6 As Int = 6
Private D7 As Int = 7
End Sub
Public Sub IniziaProva
Dim Gpio As JavaObject = Me
Gpio.InitializeStatic("com.pi4j.wiringpi.Gpio")
Private fd1 As Int = Gpio.RunMethod("wiringPiSetup", Null)
Log(fd1)
If CInt(fd1) <0 Then
Log(" ==>> GPIO SETUP FAILED")
Else
Log("Fatto")
End If
Dim bus As JavaObject = ADCDEVICE.wiringPiI2CSetup(0x27)
For i = 0 To 7
Gpio.RunMethod("pinMode", Array(i,ADCDEVICE.OUTPUT))
Next
Gpio.RunMethodJO("digitalWrite", Array As Object(LED,ADCDEVICE.HIGH))
Gpio.RunMethodJO("digitalWrite", Array As Object(RW,ADCDEVICE.LOW))
Private lcd As JavaObject = Me
lcd.InitializeStatic("com.pi4j.wiringpi.Lcd")
Private handle As Int = lcd.RunMethod("lcdInit", Array(2,16,4,RS,EN,D4,D5,D6,D7,0,0,0,0))
If handle <0 Then
Log("Fallita")
End If
lcd.RunMethodJO("lcdClear",Array As Object(handle))
Sleep(1000)

lcd.RunMethod("lcdPosition",Array As Object(handle,0,1))
lcd.RunMethod("lcdPuts",Array As Object(handle,"The Pi4J"))
