STATUS MESSAGES
Under normal conditions, set the LCD to display status messages, including:
iSTAR boot information
Date and time
Firmware version
Controller status information.
Messages typically display for approximately four seconds, separated by an
interval of about one second. In some instances, however, a message can display
until it is cancelled or terminated.
