6.1 Introduction
The GLT24064 is an intelligent display module, designed to reduce the amount of code necessary to
begin displaying data. This means that it is able to display all ASCII formated characters and strings that are
sent to it, which are defined in the current character set. The display module will begin displaying text at the
top left corner of the display area, known as home, and continue to print to the display as if it was a page on
a typewriter. When the text reaches the bottom right row, it is able to automatically scroll all of the lines up
and continue to display text, with the auto scroll option set to on.
6.1.1 Character Set
The graphic displays such as the GLT24064, do not have built in character sets. Instead fonts are up-
loaded to the display using the commands detailed in Section 5 on page 22.
6.1.2 Control Characters
In addition to a full text set, the GLT24064 display supports the following ASCII Control characters:
0x0A Line feed / New line - when this value is not defined in the font file. This command will create a new
line on the display. If scrolling is on and the display is at the bottom of the screen, the whole screen is
scrolled up.
