im trying to connect a 7 seg display to a pic18f450 but im confused, the 7 segment display is already mounted onto a board with the pins ;
vcc . A B C D GND
therefore i beleive it needs to be inputted in binary ?
but first im trying tro connect the hardware im already using port A and D for a stepper and pot so they are took up
i got given the link below from a helpful chap on this forum but the 7 segs are slightly different to what i have..
i need to 7 segs to be able to display a speed and weight therefore they need to be continueasly on
i dont really know where to start as i did this so long ago ive lost work prevoisly done
any help would be great
