Will this display work?

2011-07-01 by cristoforcolombo

Hi
one more advice: is this display compatible with K5?

Thanks

I haven't verified, but IIRC, one of those has the good controller. Not 
sure of the pinout and mechanical fit though.

Although this has the same controller language I don't believe it is compatible. 
There are some things you would have to do to the  electronics to make the displays match

Hi
I have had problems making this match the output of an Optrex or Toshiba display
even though the pinout and controller language are the same.

I think the display viewing  angle is different. Something might have to be changed on the contrast pin or on some resistors on the lcd the set the contrast or viewing angle.

A different contrast potentiometer maybe?
