SIGMA LBA-708 - Manual (Page 190)

# = ASCII pound character (0x23)
n = ASCII decimal digit ranging from 1 to 9. This value specifies the
number of digit elements, d..d, that follow.
d..d = ASCII decimal integer that specifies the number of data words that
follow.
(DAW) = Data Word. Two 8-bit data bytes, low byte followed by high byte.
The data is transmitted in a row and column sequence beginning at the display’s upper left-hand
corner, proceeding row by row and ending at the lower right-hand corner.
The following example describes how the host controller requests the current frame and receives
the data. The received data frame has the dimensions of 64 X 60. Therefore, the LBA-PC
transmits 3840 data words (pixels), or 7680 bytes to the host controller.

The following example describes how the host controller requests and receives data in frame
number 17. The LBA-PC sends the 32 X 30 frame as 960 data words or 1920 bytes.
