No standard hardware or software pacing is used such as DTR/RTS or XON/XOFF. Commands should be paced using the ACK, NAK, UNK, or ERR responses from the display.
Standard
The display’s
In single address mode (not when global commands are being used) the host machine should wait for an ACK, NAK, UNK or ERR response from the display before sending the next command to avoid overrunning the input buffer. When global commands are sent, the displays will not return a response, so a delay of ½ second should be maintained between commands to avoid possible errors.
The protocol for communication to the display consists of a 7 byte command line as described below.
STX(1 byte) IDT(2 byte) CMD(3 byte) ETX(1 byte)
Where;
ASCII STX - Start of transmission character, = 02h
