MESSAGE FORMATTING
6.3.1 Cursor Control
Move to row r, column c
(ESC[1;1H is the upper left character position of the display)
CR and cursor down 1 row with scroll
NOTES:
• Since CR is used as the message terminator, you must use ESC [ G or ESC E to
print a CR.
• The cursor row position is not affected by the currently selected font. The
display always has 4 rows, so when writing with the large font, actually two rows
are written to: the current one and the one below it. You will need
two
ESC E
commands to step from one row to the next when using the large font.
• The cursor column position is affected by the currently selected font. Therefore,
column 6
is 36 pixels from the left border only if you last selected the 6x8 font;
otherwise it could be 48 or 72 pixels from the left border.
6.3.2 Font Selection
Large font: subsequent characters are written on the current row and
the row below it using the 12x16
font which allows for two rows of
eight characters on the display.
Normal font: subsequent characters are written using the 6x8 font,
which allows for four rows of sixteen characters on the display.
ESC # 7
Medium font: subsequent characters are
written using the 8x8 font,
which allows for four rows of twelve characters on the display.
