Module commands
#XPS |
<Path> |
The command defines the project path. The module automatically searches for file names under this path, e.g. Macros. Paths are then specified with <P: ...>.
#XPG |
|
The command places the current project path in the send buffer. The feedback is structured as follows:
ESC |
X |
P |

#XCB |
Brightness, Time (no change), Flash(0) |
The command specifies the Brightness of the backlight [0 ... 150] in %. The parameter Time (in 1/100 s) indicates how quickly the brightness is reached. In the delivery state, the brightness is 100% and changes within 1 second (time = 100). If the brightness exceeds 100%, a derating of the life-time must be expected - we recommend using this setting only for a short time, e.g. in direct sunlight. The Flash parameter determines whether the setting should be saved:
Flash |

0 |

Backlight: Set gradation and frequency
#XCF |
Power, Frequency (no change), Flash(0) |
The brightness levels of the backlight are determined using a power function. Depending on the area of application, it makes sense to have more levels in the low range (night vision). For this, the parameter Power must be increased. The default value is 10. The PWM Frequency [5000 ... 65535] of the backlight can also be changed if there are indifferences with ambient light. Default: frequency = 5000. The Flash parameter determines whether the setting should be saved:

#XAS |
State |
The command sets the State of the automatic backlight dimming. Default dimming is deactivated:
State |
|
0 |
Off: no dimming |
1 |
On: Auto dimming active |
2 |
Manual retrigger |
#XAL |
Mask, Time1(60), Brightness1(50), Time2(120), Brightness2(10) |
If automatic dimming is activated (see #XAS), the command uses the Mask parameter to set which events retrigger the countdown:
Mask |
|
$01 |
Touch |
$02 |
USB |
$04 |
RS232 |
$08 |
SPI |
$10 |
I²C |
$20 |
Master RS232 |
The mask bits can be set simultaneously with bit decoding. TimeX specifies in seconds when the new brightness (BrightnessX) should be set. The new brightness value is specified relative to the current brightness (0..100).
#XSA |
"String" |
The command places a string or individual codes as ASCII values (8 bits per character) in the send buffer.
#XSU |
"String" |
The command places a string or individual codes as Unicode values (16 bits per character) in the send buffer.
#XHS |
Format(1), x(0), y(0), Anchor(7), Width(Display width), Height(Display height) |
The command takes a screenshot of the position (x, y, Anchor) and places it in the send buffer. Depending on the format in which the picture was requested, a header and the data are returned.

Display hardcopy as image object (from V1.4)
#XHO |
Obj-ID, x(0), y(0), Anchor(7), Width(Display width), Height(Display height) |
The command creates a screenshot of the position (x, y, Anchor) with the size (Width, Height) and displays it as a new image object with the Obj-ID. The background is transparent and not copied from the source.
Display hardcopy with background as image object (from V1.2)
#XHB |
Obj-ID, x(0), y(0), Anchor(7), Width(Display width), Height(Display height) |
The command creates a screenshot of the position (x, y, Anchor) with the size (Width, Height) and displays it as a new image object with the Obj-ID. The background is copied from the source.
