What we've just rolled out with AIDA64 v4.60 is only the first wave of new LCD and VFD devices. If you consider interface, protocol, controller and all other variables, there are literally hundreds of different LCD/VFD devices out there. We're already working on a number of new devices (Acer Idea 500, AX206-based firmware-hacked DPF, ct-Mausekino, Cwlinux, Futaba MDM166A, picoLCD, SoundGraph iMon UltraBay LCD, Sure Electronics, Trefon, Yoctopuce, etc) that will be added during the next few weeks, and then a lot more is coming. We're collecting ideas on which displays to support next, so feel free to let us know what display you've got, or what display you want to see being supported by AIDA64. Make sure to state display manufacturer, display model, interface (USB, serial, parallel, I2C, etc), and if possible, show us the device you've got by posting a link to the product page or a hardware review. If your unsupported LCD/VFD uses USB connection, please post a USB dump of it: right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 v4.60 --> System Debug --> USB Dump. Copy-paste the full results into this topic. Regards, Fiery

I USB to RS232 itself is 20x2 VFD in the third party software with pertelian com3:9600 protocol can be used normally, the change to the aida64 LCD POS can be identified but is unable to display the protocol does not help solve administrator cannot add pertelian protocol in LCO POS protocol pertelian.dll

We've added support for parallel port connected HD44780 character LCD and VFD displays, using the classic 8-bit Winamp wiring scheme. We've also implemented support for parallel port connected KS0108 LCD displays. You can enable the LCD device from AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Hardware Monitoring / LCD. The only thing needed to enable this feature is the LCD to be connected to a parallel port. PCI and PCIe parallel port controllers cards are fully supported. SilverStone FP54 and similar parallel port connected drive bay devices using HD44780-compatible displays are also supported. You can find the new AIDA64 beta update at: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/latesta64xebeta Please let us know if you find any difficulties enabling or using this new feature. Also let us know if you've got another kind of LCD device that is currently unsupported by AIDA64. BTW, Adafruit, Dangerous Prototypes HD44780, Odroid-Show, picoLCD 20x4, Pyramid, Roccat Valo, USB2LCD+, Wallbraun LUI LCDs are also supported now by the latest AIDA64 beta. Note: upcoming AIDA64 beta releases will implement support for more parallel port connected LCDs. If you have such an LCD, please post a message into this topic stating what kind of LCD do you have and what sort of controller (driver) is it based on. Regards, Fiery

We've added support for character based LCD displays using the USB2LCD+ protocol, as described at: Coder for Life - Project - USB2LCD+ You can enable the LCD device from AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Hardware Monitoring / LCD. After enabling it, make sure to set the LCD size (on the same page of the AIDA64 Preferences), since USB2LCD+-capable devices will not provide such information to AIDA64. Currently the following LCD sizes are supported: 16x2 16x4 20x2 20x4 The only thing needed to enable this feature is having the appropriate USB2LCD+ drivers installed, and the LCD to be connected to a USB port. You can verify if your device is USB2LCD+ compliant by finding the device on the Devices / USB Devices page in AIDA64, and checking its Device ID. It should be 5BCD-5BCD. You can find the new AIDA64 beta update at: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/latesta64xebeta Please let us know if you find any difficulties enabling or using this new feature. Also let us know if you've got another kind of LCD device that is currently unsupported by AIDA64. BTW, Adafruit, Dangerous Prototypes HD44780, LPT (Parallel Port Connected) HD44780, Odroid-Show, picoLCD 20x4, Pyramid, Roccat Valo, Wallbraun LUI LCDs are also supported now by the latest AIDA64 beta. Regards, Fiery

We've added support for POS VFD devices (customer displays, pole displays, table displays), utilizing the ADM787/788, Aedex, CD5220, DSP800, Epson ESC/POS, ICD2002, Logic Controls, UTC Standard or UTC Enhanced protocols. Only 20x2 character devices are supported at this time. You can enable the LCD device from AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Hardware Monitoring / LCD. The only thing needed to enable this feature is the display to be connected to a RS232 (serial) port. USB-connected displays are also supported, as long as they use a virtual COM port. COM port properties need to be configured in the Device Manager. You can find the new AIDA64 beta update at: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/latesta64xebeta Please let us know if you find any difficulties enabling or using this new feature. Also let us know if you've got another kind of LCD or VFD device that is currently unsupported by AIDA64. BTW, Trefon, BWCT, Crystalfontz, and LCDInfo LCD devices are also supported now by the latest AIDA64 beta. Regards, Fiery
