Hello

I have a Anet A8 and I'm convert it to a AM8. So I tough, I change the Display too. I bought this [ch.farnell.com]

It is a 20x4 OLED Display with a HDD44780 compatible controller. So far so good - I think

But I have some weird problem/behavior -> [youtu.be]

And this is not the only one. The horizontal Lines are at the wrong position.


Is:
X 0 Y 0 Z 0
Temp.Nozzle 0/0 Heatbed 0/0
AM8 Printer ready
100% Time: 00:00

Should be:
Temp.Nozzle 0/0 Heatbed 0/0
X 0 Y 0 Z 0
100% Time: 00:00
AM8 Printer ready

The only thread I found about the OLED was: [shop.prusa3d.com] (thanks to the thingiverse user 0scar)

Is that realy so, that we have to change the marlin code to run this freaking expensive display properly?


EDIT:

Display: [ch.farnell.com]
Datasheet: [www.farnell.com]
