Description

The EZIO driver was written by forum member fmertz and accepted upstream, it's now part of the package but there is no way to select it yet.

The generated lcdproc.conf file should look like:

[server]
DriverPath=/usr/local/lib/lcdproc/
Driver=hd44780
Bind=127.0.0.1
Port=13666
ReportLevel=3
ReportToSyslog=yes
User=nobody
Foreground=no
ServerScreen=no
GoodBye="Thanks for using" 
GoodBye="    pfSense     "

DownKey=Down
[hd44780]
driverpath=/usr/local/lib/lcdproc/
ConnectionType=ezio
Device=/dev/cuau1
Keypad=yes
Size=16x2
KeyMatrix_4_1=Enter

HD44780 connection type "serial" supports Portwell EZIO-100 and EZIO-300

"serial" does not do the job ?

EZIO is a serial connection type for HD44780. It must be set for the server to be able to talk to it.
