# The wiring for the LCD is as follows:
# 1 : GND
# 2 : 5V
# 3 : Contrast (0-5V)*
# 4 : RS (Register Select)
# 5 : R/W (Read Write) - GROUND THIS PIN
# 6 : Enable or Strobe
# 7 : Data Bit 0 - NOT USED
# 8 : Data Bit 1 - NOT USED
# 9 : Data Bit 2 - NOT USED
# 10: Data Bit 3 - NOT USED
# 11: Data Bit 4
# 12: Data Bit 5
# 13: Data Bit 6
# 14: Data Bit 7
# 15: LCD Backlight +5V**
# 16: LCD Backlight GND
