Hello.
 

I have a program that reads temperature.  Then I want to display it on a serial LCD, but I get junk.

 

SUB Get_Temperature
  HIGH resetpetp
  SHIFTOUT DQ, Clock, LSBFIRST, RdTmp
  SHIFTIN DQ, Clock, LSBPRE, tempIn
  SHIFTIN DQ, Clock, LSBPRE, tempInS\1
  LOW resetpetp
  RETURN

 

The temp I want to show is in tempIn which is Byte.

 

Then I convert the tempIn to two numbers and send to LCD as follows.  

  temp10 = tempIn / 10
  temp1 = tempIn // 10
   
  LCDdata = ClearLCD
  SER_OUT

  LCDdata = temp10
  SER_OUT
  LCDdata = temp1
  SER_OUT

 

Subprogram to show on LCD is tested and working when sending characters.

 

Do I need to convert it to ASCII character before sending it to serial LCD?  How do you do that in SX/B?

 

Thanks.
