Hi,

Does Mobiflight support an 40x2 LCD display?

Thank you!

Hi Austin,
that should be possible if your LCD supports I2C. When setting up the device insert that it has 40 characters in 2 lines. Normally would be 40/04.

Of course, I2C.

Then I understand that Mobiflight supports both, 40x2 and 40x4 I2C LCD displays?

I would like only to use one lcd for my efis & fcu, instead of two units or seven segments.

Thank you, StephanHo !

Hello Austin,
only 40x2 is supported, not 40x4.

Oh, sorry, not 40 x 04 - it's 20 x 04
