Thread revival! Hope you don't mind ;)

In any case, I stumbled upon this thread when looking up information about the 0832.

I myself have bought a red 0832 display (with 3 more on the way) as well as the demo board that Sure Electronics provides.

Fortunately I got into this mess after they released a manual for it haha.

Just wanted to share that the demo board can display text sent to it over USB and the 0832 displays only show 4 characters at a time (1 character per LED module). So it's comparatively inferior to what you got here.

I wish I could write up my own code to use on the demo board (to fit more characters on), but I've got no clue - only ever messed with AVR and an ATMega64 dev board a couple years ago... The Sure Electronics demo board is a PIC16F723..

For now I've just written some C code to tell the demo board what to display - turned it into a scrolling LED ticker...
