Library for the I2C connected LCD display EA DOGM204.

Example use of the LCD library.

main.cpp

include "mbed.h"
#include "lcd_DOGM204_i2c.h"

DOGM204I2C  lcd(P0_0, P0_1, 0, 100000);

int main() {

    lcd.init();  // Initialize display
    lcd.cls();   // Clear display

    lcd.display_set(DOGM204I2C::LCD_DISPLAY_ON);  // optional | LCD_CURSOR_ON | LCD_BLINK_ON

    lcd.set_pos(DOGM204I2C::LCD_LINE1);
    lcd.write((char *)"*** Hello world *** ");

    lcd.set_pos(DOGM204I2C::LCD_LINE2);
    lcd.write((char *)"01234567890123456789");

    lcd.set_pos(DOGM204I2C::LCD_LINE3);
    lcd.write((char *)"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRST");

    lcd.set_pos(DOGM204I2C::LCD_LINE4);
    lcd.write((char *)"abcdefghijklmnopqrst");
