Segment display shows backwards

Featured Replies

I have the following problem with the 32 digit display controller. Multiple digit displays are shown backwards, eg. when sending "271" to a 3 digit display used for showing heading, it actually shows "172".I am using a USB EPIC; have updated the EEPROM to checksum C347. EPL is compiled and loaded with Epic Center 0.1.1.44. For testing purposes, heading value is explicitely allocated in INIT section of EPL. Partial EPL content:...device(SegDisp) { display(Hdg,2,0,"000",true); //starting at position 0};...:INIT{ SegDisp.Hdg=271;}...Suspecting a wiring mistake, I alternately declared 3 separate single digits as below. As intended, it does show "678" in the proper order, confirming adequate wiring....device(SegDisp) { display(Hdg0,2,0,"0",true); //starting at position 0 display(Hdg1,2,1,"0",true); //starting at position 1 display(Hdg2,2,2,"0",true); //starting at position 2};...:INIT{ SegDisp.Hdg0=6; SegDisp.Hdg1=7; SegDisp.Hdg2=8;}...Any help will be appreciated,!

Sounds like you still have a wiring problem!Digits aren't numbered from left to right, rather they are numbered right to left, so digit 0 is actually the rightmost digit, (or 'Least significant Digit') proceeding to the left, which is the 'Most Significant Digit'.Rewire the digits and your problems go away. You'll have to get used to the fact that digit numbers read from right to left...

Wiring from right to left solved the problem indeed. I'm sure I'll have to get used to much more of those !!Many thanks Ray for your valuable input,Yves [email protected]
