Full Empty
Enables simple flow control. The display will return a single, Xoff, byte to the host when the display buffer is
almost full and a different, Xon, byte when the buffer is almost empty. Full value should provide enough room for
the largest data packet to be received without buffer overflow. No data should be sent to the display between full
and empty responses to permit processing. Buffer size is 128 bytes. Not available in I

Full
1 byte, number of bytes remaining before buffer is completely full, 0 < Full < Empty < 128

Xon Xoff
Xon Xoff
Xon Xoff
Sets the values returned for almost full and almost empty messages when in flow control mode. This command
permits the display to utilize standard flow control values of 0x11 and 0x13, note that defaults are 0xFF and 0xFE.
Xon
1 byte, value returned when display buffer is almost empty, permitting transmission to resume
Xoff
1 byte, value returned when display buffer is almost full, signalling transmission to halt
