LCD display satellite name,azimuth and elevation. part-2

Thanks you all for your interesting in my previous post , the( LCD display Satellite Name,Azimuth and Elevation.)
Many asking for the Arduino code.so here is the code with some hints for the setup.

I added a label texts to the 2nd low row of the LCD. see below photos .



Download and unzip the DdeOrbitronToSerial to temp folder.
Copy the ( DDEOrbitronToSerial.exe) folder and place it inside Orbitron Config folder..
See photo.
Clear any old text below the [Drivers] at Orbitron\Config\Setup.cfg .





When you Click DRIVER button at Orbitron,a window will popup ask you where the the DDEOrbitronToSerial.exe application .
Browse to Orbitron Config file and select it , now the DDEOrbitronToSerial application should launch and you will be able to select your com port and output the satellite data to the serial port. .

I found the DDEOrbitronToSerial sent data to 1st row only. !! so I added in my code a label text to the 2nd row. see photos above...
