Purpose:

Defines

a

custom

character.

Logic

Controls

Emulation

Mode

The

byte

that

follows

the

command

byte

contains

an

ASCII

character

between

X'20'

and

X'7F'

of

a

keyboard

key

to

be

redefined.

This

byte

is

followed

by

five

bytes

defining

the

bit

patterns

of

the

user-defined

character.

Logic

Controls

Emulation

Mode

allows

only

one

keyboard

key

to

be

redefined.

This

means

that

there

is

only

one

user-definable

character

in

this

mode.

Once

a

key

is

redefined,

any

occurrence

of

that

character

on

the

display

will

change

to

the

user-defined

character.

If

a

new

key

is

redefined,

the

previously

redefined

key

is

restored

to

the

original

character

in

all

places

on

the

display

and

the

newly

redefined

key

is

changed

to

the

user-definable

character.

Table

A-1

on

page

A-3

shows

the

format

of

these

five

bytes.

Note:

A

hyphen

character

in

the

table

indicates

a

do-not-care

bit.

The

other

values

relate

to

the

character

pixel

positions

shown

in

the

diagram

following

the

table.

A

value

of

1

in

the

data

stream

indicates

that

the

related

pixel

position

is

ON;

a

0

indicates

that

it

is

OFF.
