Hi there.

Just received new LCD shield but the pins look different from the previous shields and datashield.

The jumpers for ICSP is not next to contrast potensiometer any longer but I see new jumpers at the bottom right.

Can someone please supply information for the new jumpers.

Thanks

You're right. The latest LCD Shield version is 1.1, This new version has:

5 analog pins (Bottom right side) for A1 to A5, as A0 is used for the included buttons, along with 5V and Gnd for each, you can see these are labeled.

On the top right side these pins are just straight pin outs for pins 0 to 8.

The female header to the left of that is an APC220 socket, which can be used straight through with our bluetooth module.


The ICSP pin holes are still there if you still want to use them, just solder on some pin headers to use it.

I hope that clears things up a bit.
