Hi skippy007,
the steps to configure it:
- Services > lcdproc > Server
- Com Port = Parallel port1 8/dev/lpt0)
- Display Size = 2 row 16 columns
- Driver = Watchguard Firebox whit SDEC
- Connection Type= 4bit wiring to parallel port
- Refresh frequency = 5 sec
- SAVE
- Status > Services >Lcdproc => Restart
Enjoy :D
another trick to set correctly the display's buttons:
-
Diagnostics > Edit File
-
Save/load from path: /usr/local/etc/LCDd.conf
-
Change menu section to:
[menu]
MenuKey=Down
EnterKey=Right
UpKey=Up
DownKey=Left -
Save
Remembers all the changes involve a rewrite of this file, so after every update you have to manually edit the file and change the section menu.

Make those changes to the 'sdeclcd menu settings' section in /usr/local/pkg/lcdproc.inc if you want them to survive a settings save.

the steps to configure it:
Sir, appreciate if you could confirm your steps for the current shipping PFSense. Just tried " LCDproc " package (not devel. version) and your designated driver is not present.
Alternately, I tried driver " picolcd" which seemed appropriate to me and no luck.
One edit: lcdproc.service isn't loading.
Thanks.

The firebox driver is only in the -dev version of the package.

I can confirm the instructions above do make text appear, however not showing the information selected on "screens" tab as I would expect.
Just: (line 1) "LCDproc serve", (line 2) "Cli:0 Scr:0".
Thanks.

One quick update on my previous results; after a full halt, cut off and restart, text started to show as expected.
Thank you all for posts. Happy with the results.
Regards,
