[57north-discuss] 16 x 2 LCD screen in Japenese font

[Wouter Piessens]

Hey folks,

Looking for a bit of guidance here:   I am playing about with the 16 -2 LCD
purchased from Pimoroni, likely with the Hitachi HD4478U on board and then
connected to RPI 3B+.  I have wired it up just like the following website :
https://www.raspberrypi-spy.co.uk/2012/07/16x2-lcd-module-control-using-python/

However, the LCD is spitting out Japanese Katakana font, and not
alfa-numerical font. I have it all wired up correctly..Has anyone
experienced this before or knows how to change the output font on on the
module?

Cheerio,

Wouter
