Dot Graphic VFD Module
GU180x32D-K610A4
AREA COMMANDS
The VFD module contains commands to fill, clear and invert defined areas of the display. Also an outline command is available to draw rectangles
around objects.
The following example displays three options for the user to select, each option is contained within a box with a shadow effect. Drawing horizontal
and vertical line using the fill area command creates the shadow effect.
SET CURSOR DISPLAY OPTIONS
10H 21H 13H ‘SETUP’
10H 4AH 13H ‘PRINT’
10H 79H 13H ‘RUN’
BOX OUTLINE TOP LEFT
BOTTOM RIGHT
Display options with simple text write.
14H 1BH 0AH 41H 14H
14H 45H 0AH 6BH 14H
14H 6FH 0AH 95H 14H
SET AREA
HORIZONTAL LINE
FILL AREA
VERTICAL LINE
Boxes created using the ‘Set Outline’ command.
11H 1CH 15H
11H 46H 15H
11H 70H 15H
42H 15H
6CH 15H
96H 15H
11H 42H 0BH 42H 15H
11H 6CH 0BH 6CH 15H
11H 96H 0BH 96H 15H
Drop Shadows created with the ‘Set Area’ command.
The next example uses the invert area command to select one of the options.

13H 70H 0BH 94H 13H
Option ‘Run’ selected with the ‘Invert Area’ command.
WRITE MODES
By default, display data that is overwritten will be cleared prior to displaying any new data. This display data can be maintained whilst writing by
selecting the ‘OR’ mode with the ‘Write Mode’ command, this will effectively merge the old data with the new. The ‘AND’ write mode will only display
written data if existing data is present on the display. The other ‘Write Mode’ is ‘XOR’ which can be useful for writing text on an inverted display.
The following example uses the XOR mode to write text on a full display.
WRITE MODE XOR MODE SET AREA
TOP LEFT BOTTOM RIGHT
1AH 03H
11H 00H 00H B3H 1FH
10H 33H 13H ‘INVERETED TEXT’
This next example uses the XOR mode to display the percentage completed on
a progress bar.
WRITE MODE XOR MODE
1AH 03H
10H 41H 0DH ‘PROGRESS’
14H 00H 12H B3H 1CH
11H 00H 12H 58H 1CH
10H 54H 1BH ‘50%’
Displaying inverted text using the ‘Write Mode’ command.
