Section 3. Commands

 

 

 

 

 

display

 

 

 

 

Function

Show a single message or two alternating messages on the device’s display.

 

Syntax

/display [x]

 

 

The optional argument x indicates the message to be displayed.

 

Errors

none

 

 

 

Remarks

If the optional argument x is provided, this command displays it as a single message.

 

 

If x is @, the driver sends a command to the device to display the idle message 00

 

 

(“Welcome”). If x is omitted, the command uses the values of the msg1 and msg2

 

 

properties for the message texts. If msg2 is empty, this command displays the text in

 

 

msg1; otherwise, it displays the texts in msg1 and msg2 as alternating messages. The

 

 

message texts are displayed unmodified, except for any ‘\’ characters, which are

 

 

used as escape characters:

 

 

\r is converted to 0x0D (shown as <CR> in this document)

 

 

\n is converted to 0x0A (shown as <LF> in this document), e.g., to be used as

 

 

line separator for LCD screens that can display multiple lines

 

 

\\ is converted to \

 

 

\xhh is converted to a character with ASCII value hh (always two hex digits).

 

 

Not all ASCII values can be displayed.

 

 

Leading and trailing spaces are removed from the message texts in the x

 

 

argument and the msg1 and msg2 properties. \x20 may be used for adding

 

 

leading spaces.

 

 

To center the message “Thank You” on the IntelliPIN LCD:

 

 

Command

/display \x20\x20\x20Thank You

 

 

Response

none

echo

Function Syntax

Errors Remarks

Example

Echo data−driver test command. /echo string

string is limited to 11 characters (the width of the ‘arg1’ field in the response format) without any embedded spaces.

none

The driver responds by echoing the command back. If the command specifies a string that is longer than 11 characters or if a space appears, the response will be truncated. There is no translation for escape (\x00) commands. This command cannot be cancelled with /cancel.

If you wish to ensure that the driver is properly installed, request it to echo a string:

Command /echo Testing<LF>

Response /echo

Testing<LF>
