Control Signals
RS- Register Select There are 2 very important registers in LCD

Command Code register Data Register
If RS=0 Instruction command Code register is selected, allowing user to send command RS=1 Data register is selected allowing to send data that has to be displayed.
R\W- Read\Write R\W input allows the user to write information to LCD or read information from it. How do we read data from LCD????? The data that is being currently displayed will be stored in a buffer memory DDRAM. This data could be read if necessary. If R\W=0 Reading R\W=1 Writing
E- Enable The enable Pin is used by the LCD to latch information at its data pins. When data is supplied to data pins, a high to low pulse must be applied to this pin in order for the LCD to latch the data present in the data pins. E Toggle
Data Bus- D0-D7 Power for Backlighting LEDs VDDPower 5V Vss GND
General Explanation We have to prepare an LCD properly before the character we need, has to be displayed. For this a number of commands have to be provided to the LCD before inputting the required data. The commands will be discussed in the later part of this tutorial.

Programming Steps
Before sending Data to be Displayed to the LCD, it should be prepared to hold that particular value. For this certain initializations are to be done as per the Instructions. MoveValue0X38,3times.(Appliedmax3timesduetorisetimefactor) MoveValue0X06,1time. MoveValue0X0F,1time.
