Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi all,

Finally at the stage where I can connect my controller to the Spa & use some real inputs & control a few relays.

What I'd like to do is put just a basic breadboard outside, with No LCD Touch, and keep the Backpack inside with dummy sensors & a few leds for development purposes.

Is the something I can do in code so the one in service ignores the missing LCD screen at this time.

Would rather not have two sets of code, or have to be commenting things out each time I update the one that's in use.

Thanks

Phil

You could configure them the same but just not plug the LCD panel in on the outside one. MMBasic will still try to send data to the display but it will not throw an error.

Thanks,

That's what I really needed to know, the fact that It would not create errors.
