Yeah i found that out will be getting another one . Did get it to work after i got the RAR file from them. here is shetch. /*
The circuit:

  • LCD RS pin to digital pin 8
  • LCD Enable pin to digital pin 9
  • LCD D4 pin to digital pin 4
  • LCD D5 pin to digital pin 5
  • LCD D6 pin to digital pin 6
  • LCD D7 pin to digital pin 7
  • LCD BL pin to digital pin 10
  • KEY pin to analogl pin 0
