Appendix C. LCD/Keypad Module
An optional LCD/keypad is available for the BL2100. Appendix C describes the LCD/keypad and provides the software APIs to make full use of the LCD/keypad.
C.1 Specifications
Table C-1 lists the electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications for the LCD/keypad assembly.
C.2 Mounting LCD/Keypad Module on the BL2100
Install the LCD/keypad module on header sockets J20, J21, and J22 of the BL2100 main board as shown in Figure C-1. Be careful to align the pins over the headers, and do not bend them as you press down to mate the LCD/keypad module with the BL2100 main board.
C.3 Keypad Labeling
The keypad may be labeled according to your needs. A template is provided in Figure C-2 to allow you to design your own keypad label insert.
To replace the keypad legend, remove the old legend and insert your new legend prepared according to the template in Figure C-2. The keypad legend is located under the blue keypad matte, and is accessible from the left only as shown in Figure C-3.
C.4 Header Pinouts
Figure C-4 shows the pinouts for headers J20, J21, and J22 of the BL2100 main board.
C.4.1 I/O Address Assignments
The LCD and keypad on the LCD/keypad module are addressed by the PE7 strobe as explained in Table C-2.
Table C-2. LCD/Keypad Module Address Assignment Exx0-Exx7 LCD control Exx8 LED enable Exx9 Not used ExxA 7-key keypad ExxB (bits 0-6) 7-LED driver ExxB (bit 7) LCD backlight on/off ExxC-ExxF Not used C.5 Programming Cable Tips
Once the LCD/keypad module is in place on the BL2100, it is not possible to remove or attach the programming cable to/from the BL2100 programming port. You will have to remove, or at least lift up, the LCD/keypad module while you connect or disconnect the programming cable.
While you are developing your application, you may wish to connect or disconnect the programming cable when resetting the BL2100 and switching between the Program Mode and the Run Mode. To avoid the inconvenience of removing and replacing the LCD/keypad module each time, the programming cable may be disconnected/reconnected at the RS-232/CMOS level converter in the middle of the programming cable.
1. Peel back plastic shrink wrap as shown in Figure C-5.
2. Disconnect the programming cable at RS-2332/CMOS level converter board.
3. Line up the colored edges of the programming cable when reconnecting the programming cable. Reconnect the programming cable as shown in Figure C-7, being careful to align the pins with the jack
Once you have finished programming the LCD/keypad module, you should disconnect the programming cable from the BL2100 programming port, remembering to first remove, or at least lift up, the LCD/keypad module, disconnect the programming cable, and finally firmly mount the LCD/keypad module back on the BL2100 main board.
C.6 LCD/Keypad Module Function APIs
C.6.1 LEDs
When power is applied to the LCD/keypad module for the first time, the red LED (DS1) will come on, indicating that power is being applied to the LCD/keypad module. The red LED is turned off when the brdInit function executes.

- 4. Creating 2 different TEXT windows for display.
- 5. Displaying different FONT sizes.
The following sample programs, found in the TCPIP subdirectory in SAMPLES/LCD_Keypad/122x32_1x7, are targeted at the Ethernet-enabled versions of the BL2100, the BL2100 and the BL2110. Remember to configure the IP address, netmask, and gateway as indicated in the sample programs.
- MBOXDEMO.C--This program implements a web server that allows e-mail messages to be entered that are then shown on the LCD display. The keypad allows you to scroll within messages, flip to other e-mails, mark messages as read, and delete e-mails. When a new e-mail arrives, an LED turns on, and turns off once the message has been marked as read. A log of all e-mail actions is kept, and can be displayed in the Web browser. All current e-mails can also be read with the Web browser.
- When using MBOXDEMO.C, connect the BL2100 and a PC (or other device with a Web Browser) to an Ethernet. If you connect the PC and the BL2100 directly, be sure to use a crossover Ethernet cable; strait-through Ethernet cables and a hub may be used instead.
- TCP_RESPOND.C--This program and TCP_SEND.C are executed on two separate single-board computers to demonstrate how the two boards communicate with each other. Use PCSEND.EXE on the PC console side at the command prompt if you do not have a second board. PCSEND.EXE is located with source code in the SAMPLES/LCD_Keypad/Windows directory.
- TCP_RESPOND.C waits for a message from another single-board computer. The message received is displayed on the LCD, and you may respond by pressing a key on the keypad. The response is then sent to the remote single-board computer.
- TCPSEND.C--This program andTCP_RESPOND.C are executed on two separate single-board computers to demonstrate how the two boards communicate with each other. Use PCRESPOND.EXE on the PC console side at the command prompt if you do not have a second board. PCRESPOND.EXE is located with source code in the SAMPLES/LCD_Keypad/Windows directory.
- When a key on the keypad is pressed, a message associated with that key is sent to a specified destination address and port. The destination then responds to that message. The response is displayed on the LCD.
- Note that only the LEFT and UP scroll keys are set up to cause a message to be sent.
When using TCPSEND.C and TCP_RESPOND.C, connect the BL2100 and the other single-board computer to an Ethernet. If you connect the them directly, be sure to use a crossover Ethernet cable; strait-through Ethernet cables and a hub may be used instead.
