Help on display data on lcd

[yee0722]

Hii I really need help here for my project. Anyone has example on how to display temperature sensor data on LCD screen? I have try the 4 bit hello world example. I don't know how to connect the circuit to display the value from temperature sensor. I can't found any solution online, so guys please help me.. appreacite so much!

Are you able to successfully use the example?  (you don't say if you had success or not)

If that is working then you should only need to convert your temperature to a string with 'Number to Fractional String".

hi thanks for reply. i use the simple analog reading example to apply on the lcd. i managed to get the reading from the sensor, but the question is the reading will show continuously in the screen. How should I modify to clear the screen for every new input value. thank you!

I guess I don't understand the issue.

Hi, sorry for my poor english. To make it simple, I want to display the analog reading from potentiometer (0-5V) continuously. But there is error in the loop, which the value was wrong (50++V). I need advice on how to modify the circuit. Thank you again!

To display consecutive strings on the LCD, you need to first clear the LCD and then set the cursor to the correct starting position before writing the new string to the LCD:

Let me know if this solves your problem.
