- config PANEL
- tristate "Parallel port LCD/Keypad Panel support"
- depends on PARPORT
- ---help---
- Say Y here if you have an HD44780 or KS-0074 LCD connected to your
- parallel port. This driver also features 4 and 6-key keypads. The LCD
- is accessible through the /dev/lcd char device (10, 156), and the
- keypad through /dev/keypad (10, 185). Both require misc device to be
- enabled. This code can either be compiled as a module, or linked into
- the kernel and started at boot. If you don't understand what all this
- is about, say N.
- config PANEL_PARPORT
- int "Default parallel port number (0=LPT1)"
- depends on PANEL
- range 0 255
- default "0"
- ---help---
- This is the index of the parallel port the panel is connected to. One
- driver instance only supports one parallel port, so if your keypad
- and LCD are connected to two separate ports, you have to start two
- modules with different arguments. Numbering starts with '0' for LPT1,
- and so on.
- config PANEL_PROFILE
- int "Default panel profile (0-5, 0=custom)"
- depends on PANEL
- range 0 5
- default "5"
- ---help---
- To ease configuration, the driver supports different configuration
- profiles for past and recent wirings. These profiles can also be
- used to define an approximative configuration, completed by a few
- other options. Here are the profiles :
- 0 = custom (see further)
- 1 = 2x16 parallel LCD, old keypad
- 2 = 2x16 serial LCD (KS-0074), new keypad
- 3 = 2x16 parallel LCD (Hantronix), no keypad
- 4 = 2x16 parallel LCD (Nexcom NSA1045) with Nexcom's keypad
- 5 = 2x40 parallel LCD (old one), with old keypad
- Custom configurations allow you to define how your display is
- wired to the parallel port, and how it works. This is only intended
- for experts.
- config PANEL_KEYPAD
- depends on PANEL && PANEL_PROFILE="0"
- int "Keypad type (0=none, 1=old 6 keys, 2=new 6 keys, 3=Nexcom 4 keys)"
- range 0 3
- default 0
- ---help---
- This enables and configures a keypad connected to the parallel port.
- The keys will be read from character device 10,185. Valid values are :
- 0 : do not enable this driver
- 1 : old 6 keys keypad
- 2 : new 6 keys keypad, as used on the server at www.ant-computing.com
- 3 : Nexcom NSA1045's 4 keys keypad
- New profiles can be described in the driver source. The driver also
- supports simultaneous keys pressed when the keypad supports them.
- config PANEL_LCD
- depends on PANEL && PANEL_PROFILE="0"
- int "LCD type (0=none, 1=custom, 2=old //, 3=ks0074, 4=hantronix, 5=Nexcom)"
- range 0 5
- default 0
- ---help---
- This enables and configures an LCD connected to the parallel port.
- The driver includes an interpreter for escape codes starting with
- '\e[L' which are specific to the LCD, and a few ANSI codes. The
- driver will be registered as character device 10,156, usually
- under the name '/dev/lcd'. There are a total of 6 supported types :
- 0 : do not enable the driver
- 1 : custom configuration and wiring (see further)
- 2 : 2x16 & 2x40 parallel LCD (old wiring)
- 3 : 2x16 serial LCD (KS-0074 based)
- 4 : 2x16 parallel LCD (Hantronix wiring)
- 5 : 2x16 parallel LCD (Nexcom wiring)
- When type '1' is specified, other options will appear to configure
- more precise aspects (wiring, dimensions, protocol, ...). Please note
- that those values changed from the 2.4 driver for better consistency.
- config PANEL_LCD_HEIGHT
- depends on PANEL && PANEL_PROFILE="0" && PANEL_LCD="1"
- int "Number of lines on the LCD (1-2)"
- range 1 2
- default 2
- ---help---
- This is the number of visible character lines on the LCD in custom profile.
- It can either be 1 or 2.
- config PANEL_LCD_WIDTH
- depends on PANEL && PANEL_PROFILE="0" && PANEL_LCD="1"
- int "Number of characters per line on the LCD (1-40)"
- range 1 40
- default 40
- ---help---
- This is the number of characters per line on the LCD in custom profile.
- Common values are 16,20,24,40.
- config PANEL_LCD_BWIDTH
- depends on PANEL && PANEL_PROFILE="0" && PANEL_LCD="1"
- int "Internal LCD line width (1-40, 40 by default)"
- range 1 40
- default 40
- ---help---
- Most LCDs use a standard controller which supports hardware lines of 40
- characters, although sometimes only 16, 20 or 24 of them are really wired
- to the terminal. This results in some non-visible but addressable characters,
- and is the case for most parallel LCDs. Other LCDs, and some serial ones,
- however, use the same line width internally as what is visible. The KS0074
- for example, uses 16 characters per line for 16 visible characters per line.
- This option lets you configure the value used by your LCD in 'custom' profile.
- If you don't know, put '40' here.
- config PANEL_LCD_HWIDTH
- depends on PANEL && PANEL_PROFILE="0" && PANEL_LCD="1"
- int "Hardware LCD line width (1-64, 64 by default)"
- range 1 64
- default 64
- ---help---
- Most LCDs use a single address bit to differentiate line 0 and line 1. Since
- some of them need to be able to address 40 chars with the lower bits, they
- often use the immediately superior power of 2, which is 64, to address the
- next line.
- If you don't know what your LCD uses, in doubt let 16 here for a 2x16, and
- 64 here for a 2x40.
- config PANEL_LCD_CHARSET
- depends on PANEL && PANEL_PROFILE="0" && PANEL_LCD="1"
- int "LCD character set (0=normal, 1=KS0074)"
- range 0 1
- default 0
- ---help---
- Some controllers such as the KS0074 use a somewhat strange character set
- where many symbols are at unusual places. The driver knows how to map
- 'standard' ASCII characters to the character sets used by these controllers.
- Valid values are :
- 0 : normal (untranslated) character set
- 1 : KS0074 character set
- If you don't know, use the normal one (0).
- config PANEL_LCD_PROTO
- depends on PANEL && PANEL_PROFILE="0" && PANEL_LCD="1"
- int "LCD communication mode (0=parallel 8 bits, 1=serial)"
- range 0 1
- default 0
- ---help---
- This driver now supports any serial or parallel LCD wired to a parallel
- port. But before assigning signals, the driver needs to know if it will
- be driving a serial LCD or a parallel one. Serial LCDs only use 2 wires
- (SDA/SCL), while parallel ones use 2 or 3 wires for the control signals
- (E, RS, sometimes RW), and 4 or 8 for the data. Use 0 here for a 8 bits
- parallel LCD, and 1 for a serial LCD.
- config PANEL_LCD_PIN_E

- config PANEL_CHANGE_MESSAGE
- depends on PANEL
- bool "Change LCD initialization message ?"
- default "n"
- ---help---
- This allows you to replace the boot message indicating the kernel version
- and the driver version with a custom message. This is useful on appliances
- where a simple 'Starting system' message can be enough to stop a customer
- from worrying.
- If you say 'Y' here, you'll be able to choose a message yourself. Otherwise,
- say 'N' and keep the default message with the version.
- config PANEL_BOOT_MESSAGE

- ---help---
- This allows you to replace the boot message indicating the kernel version
- and the driver version with a custom message. This is useful on appliances
- where a simple 'Starting system' message can be enough to stop a customer
- from worrying.
- An empty message will only clear the display at driver init time. Any other
- printf()-formatted message is valid with newline and escape codes.
