Display Extended Text
[ text ] p [ row , column ] [ clear ] [ ,F|f size ]%C
Allows non-displayable control codes and extended ASCII characters to be transmitted to the LCD. This
command is identical to the display standard text on LCD with the exception of the position identifier 'p'.
Here, the lower case 'p' is used to identify three digits preceded by a backslash '\' character as a single
ASCII decimal value.
For example,
\179 Use Arrow Keys \180p1,1a,F2%C
will display
↑ Use Arrow Keys ↓
The '\179' and '\180' ASCII decimal values are extended control codes that display the up and down arrows.
Refer to Appendix A for a complete list of displayable LCD characters.
