Easy to use, well documented | ||
I found the DFRkeypad library in the Arduino list and installed it. It more or less worked, though the keypad code is a bit rough. The display worked out of the box, and I really like the programmable backlight level. | ||

Good tip. | ||
Thanks Robert for the tip about changing the initial pin numbers. Hello World! | ||

Works great with MPJA UNO once sketch changes are made. | ||
Most of the LCD test sketches use different pins that dont allow this 1602 LCD shield to function when plugged directly onto the UNO board. Change the initilization line to: LiquidCrystal lcd8, 9, 4, 5, 6, 7; and the basic 1602 LCD test sketch should run correctly with this shield. Im a new Arduino user and having fun with MPJAs UNO and additional hardware options. I rate this LCD as 4 star only because it is not directly plug and play. | ||
