It uses NewSoftSerial on pins 2 and 3 as well as regular serial on pins 0 and 1 (on old Arduino0022) just for testing to see if NewSoftSerial is any good. I have a simple Arduino sketch that just shows each character. The module asserts the busy line when it is working but it is enough to just make short delays in your code! can be operated by a parallel interface or a synchronous serial interface. The module has a single 20 pin connector (2x10 0.1" pins) of which we only need connection for +5V, GND, serial data in and a busy line out. Futaba Vacuum Fluoresc ent Display Module M204SD08AA, with Fut aba VFD. The VFD is a Futaba M202MD15B (20x2 chars of 5x7+1 dots) for which no help have come from Google, i only get ebay-like sites as results and don't have almost any documentation for it there's no mention of such VFD on Futaba site and the similar models i've found there are different enough as to be unusable because the pinout changes. I've put a Xino into the box and I'm working on something amusing for it to do in the hackspace. It has a European font with characters in the range from 0x20 (space) through the ASCII range and up to 0xFF with a bunch of Greek and Cyrillic characters. The Futaba Corp M202SD08G module is a 20 character x 2 line, 5x8 dot matrix display. It is housed in a project box with a mains transformer - it use to have a mystery 9-pin serial port input but it wouldn't work until we worked out that it was expecting a 5V TTL serial signal. A small Vacuum Flourescent Display I recovered from the skip at work.
