Can you help me to set up my pic18F452 in order to write on LCD display?My electric connections are:

Quote:

LCD Pic18F452
D0 D0
D1 D1
D2 D2
D3 D3
RS D4
RW D5
En A5

How can I modify the pin map structure of LCD.C to match this configuration?
Thank you

How can I modify the pin map structure of LCD.C to match this configuration?

To modify Mark's LCD driver for your pin map, you need to make
the changes shown below. Here is the link to Mark's driver:
http://www.ccsinfo.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=20182

You need to use the following lcd_pin_map structure:

Code:

struct lcd_pin_map
{
int unusedA0_A4 : 5; // Pins A0-A4 are not used
BOOLEAN enable : 1; // Pin A5 = LCD Enable
int unusedA6_A7 : 2; // Pins A6,A7 are not used
int unusedB; // Port B is not used
int unusedC; // Port C is not used
int data : 4; // Pins D0-D3 = LCD Data (LCD pins DB4-DB7)
BOOLEAN rs : 1; // Pin D4 = LCD rs
BOOLEAN rw : 1; // Pin D5 = LCD rw
int unusedD : 2; // Pins D6,D7 are not used
} lcd;

The TRIS map must also be changed to the following:

Code:

struct lcd_tris_map
{
int unusedA0_A4 : 5; // Pins A0-A4 are not used
BOOLEAN enable : 1; // Pin A5 = LCD Enable
int unusedA6_A7 : 2; // Pins A6,A7 are not used
int unusedB; // Port B is not used
int unusedC; // Port C is not used
int data : 4; // Pins D0-D3 = LCD data (LCD pins DB4-DB7)
BOOLEAN rs : 1; // Pin D4 = LCD rs
BOOLEAN rw : 1; // Pin D5 = LCD rw
int unusedD : 2; // Pins D6-D7 are not used
} lcdtris;

The set_tris_lcd() macro must be changed to this:

Code:

#define set_tris_lcd(x) lcdtris.data = (x); \
lcdtris.rs = 0; \
lcdtris.rw = 0; \
lcdtris.enable = 0;

Important Note:
When you operate the LCD in 4-bit data bus mode, it's the upper 4 bits
of the LCD data bus that are used -- pins DB4 to DB7. So you must
connect the LCD data pins to the PIC as follows:

Code:

LCD pin PIC pin
DB4 D0
DB5 D1
DB6 D2
DB7 D3
