With this option you can select the port pins for the LCD display.
This only applies to the LCD statements when used in 4-bit mode and if the LCD display is connected to the port pins.
You can also choose the port pins with the CONFIG LCDPIN statement.
In the 4-bit mode, only the highest nibble of the data lines is used.
To spare a pin for the R/W pin, reading from the LCD is not supported and you must connect the R/W line to ground. See additional hardware for more info.
You can also use the LCD statements in the data bus mode.
Some LCD displays needs the upper 3 bits to be set high. So when you have this kind of display you must select this option. When you select this option the LCD designer will set the upper 3 bits high when the DEFLCDCHAR statement is generated.
