You could start the MCU up on the internal clock , write to the lcd ,
wait 5 sec. And then switch to the external clock.
Btw:
Is the Ext clock input on the STM fed directly from the OCXO ?
Can the STM handle the OCXO voltage swing ?
If you have a conditioning circuit betewwn the OCXO and the STM , i'd
like to see it. As i have the need for one , trying to interface a 5v OCXO
to a NXP 1114 Arm , that wants max 1.8v in the clockinput.
