Help with LCD display formats

[SonOfBc]

Can anyone help me with LCD commands?
I am currently using Proton basic (and thinking about switching to Swordfish) and some commands I use frequently are:

Print "Var1= ", Dec Var1 ' Display the decimal value of Var1
Print "Var1= ", Hex Var1 ' Display the hexadecimal value of Var1
Print "Var1= ", Bin Var1 ' Display the binary value of Var1
etc.....

Can anyone explain to me how these functions are handled in SwordFish?

Thank you

Code: Select all

Include "LCD.bas"
Include "Convert.bas"
dim Var1 as byte
LCD.WriteAt(1,1,DecToStr(Var1,3))
LCD.WriteAt(1,1,HexToStr(Var1,2))
LCD.WriteAt(1,1,BinToStr(Var1,8))

You will need to ensure the LCD is configured to use the correct pins. Put the cursor on "LCD" and press F1 for further help...

I did see the Conversion module but the functions were confusing to me.
I guess in hindsight I should have tried them..

Thanks again..
