It all depends on whether the LCD has a 4 or 8 bit parallel interface
or a serial interface. Some have a parallel interface that can
operate in either 4-bit or 8-bit mode.
Many LCDs use a controller that is compatible (signals and commands)
with the Hitachi HD44780 controller. If yours is, the links below may
be useful:

From the information provided you can see that the signal interface is
parallel. There is a good chance that it is HD44780 compatible. You
can try it to confirm or query the supplier for more information.
Either way, once you know the command set you can probably modify
NetMedia's LCDX software to work with it. That code looks like it is
written for an HD44780-style display.
