[Nibble mode]
(1) The writable character data to be stored is separated into four dot units and sent in
above-mentioned order (1
→
248). (Upper digit: “3”)
(2) The data of writable characters to be stored is 30H to 3FH.
(3) The minimum unit in the X direction is 8 dots. Dots with no data are transmitted as data
0.
(4) The data count of writable characters to be stored must be as follows:
Data count of writable characters to be stored =
{(No. of char. width dots + 7)/8} × No. of char. height dots × 2
* The value in the brackets is rounded down to the nearest whole number.
[Hex. mode]
(1) The writable character data to be stored is separated into eight dot units and sent in the
following order (1
→
124).
(2) The data of writable characters to be stored is 00H to FFH.
(3) The minimum unit of character width is 8 dots. Dots with no data are transmitted as data
0.
(4) The number of bytes of the writable character to be stored must be as follows:
The number of bytes of the writable character to be stored =
{(No. of char. width dots + 7)/8} × No. of char. height dots
* The value in the brackets is rounded down to the nearest whole number.
