Hello everyone. Thanks for the acceptance in the forum. I have 2 i2c lcds with address 0x26 and 0x27. I can't find any nodes to control separately. Can you give me a solution please. Thanks in advance.

Make, model, link to site that sells the same I2c device you have? There are many different kinds of I2C lcd's

Lets try again.

I asked for:  
Make, model, link to site that sells the same I2c device you have? There are many different kinds of I2C lcd's

You posted a picture. This is not helpful as it did not address any of the above asked for information.

I have wrote a node for working with LCD's

> **[node-red-contrib-i2c-lcd-adafruit-sainsmart](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-i2c-lcd-adafruit-sainsmart)**
>
> Node for node-red to interact with Adafruit and sainsmart i2c-lcd's. Also units built using MCP23017 i2c port expander and a HD44780 LCD or conpatable 16x2 LCD.

I'm not going to take the time to treasure hunt the image/picture to see if I can help you.  
See above link and check that your device is driven by a I2c to MCP23017, if not, best of luck.

there's not a lot of information on it. I had already tested with your node. no result. I found PCF8574 on it. THANKS

A little google search brought me to this:

> **[LCD I2C PCF8574 Interface Adapter - ProtoSupplies](https://protosupplies.com/product/lcd-i2c-interface-adapter/)**
>
> LCD I2C interface adapter can be added to a 16x2 or 20x4 character LCD display with a standard parallel interface to make it I2C compatible.

and it has a lot of information about the board.

A search on the [flows tab](https://flows.nodered.org) of the forum, using pcf8574, finds an number of nodes you can try out.
