Re: xPL-LCD Update
Hi Neil
The devcom is for a serial device in my case i have it setup for
comport 2 and have named the instance as lcdosd1.....This devcom will AFAIK
pass all xPL messages it receives thru to the serial port and my xPL-LCD
will pick up the OSD messages sent to it or broadcast osd messages...
The Determinators do not send any messages directly to the serial
port...Messages are available for all apps to look at and decide if action
is required........
Have a look in the photo section of the list ,i have some snippets there
and
then get back to me ...
