Personalizing the Splash
Screen Using Serial
Commands

To personalize the start-up splash screen with the customer name, Runco dealer name or
any other string (up to 28 characters long), send the following commands:

[c############################] to program the customer name or other
string (represented by

############################)

[d############################] to program the dealer name or other string
(represented by

############################)

To send a command from a PC running terminal emulation software, create a text file
containing that command. Then, use the file transfer function in your terminal emulation
program to send the command. (If you are using HyperTerminal, choose “Send Text
File...” from the Transfer menu.)

When you do, the Crystal Series LCD echoes the string back to the control system or PC,
enclosed in quotes (for example,

"Runco Customer"). If it doesn’t, verify that you sent

the command correctly.

To see the changes take effect, cycle power to the Crystal Series LCD.

For example, sending the commands

[cRunco Customer] and

[dBy: Runco Dealer] causes the splash screen to look like this:

0088

0089

0090
