protocols. First, the unit can communicate using serial protocol at either RS323 or TTL voltage levels.
Second, it can communicate using the Inter-Integrated Circuit, or I

C protocol. Connections for each

protocol can be accessed through the four pin Communication/Power Header as outlined in the Serial

Recommended Parts

The most common cable choice for any standard Matrix Orbital
display, the Communication/Power Cable offers a simple connection
to the unit with familiar interfaces. DB9 and floppy power headers
provide all necessary input to drive your display.

For a more flexible interface to the LVK204-25, a Breadboard Cable
may be used. This provides a simple four wire connection that is
popular among developers for its ease of use in a breadboard
environment.
