OBLCD_Type tt

This instruction tells the SPLat controller what type of LCD it is controlling. It also tells the control chip within the LCD module itself. Without this the system cannot correctly manipulate the cursor, allow for the correct line lengths etc.

The instruction argument tt defines the LCD type according to the following table:

tt Rows Columns Comment
1 1 16  
2 2 16 Default type
3 4 16  
4 2 20  
5 4 20  

This instruction will destroy any dimming settings made using OBLCD_Dim.

Note: This instruction modifies UV

Dialect exclusions: Not available in dialects before 9. Also, not available on SPLat controllers that do not have onboard LCD support (please check the documentation for your specific board and Firmware version).
