DISPlay:TEXT

This command sets the character string that is displayed when the display mode is set to TEXT.
The argument is a quoted string limited to upper case alpha characters and numbers. The display
is capable of showing up to 32 characters divided over 2 lines of 16 characters each. If the string
exceeds the display capacity, it will be truncated.

The display system does not perform automatic word wrap between the 2 lines of the LCD
display. The programming is responsible for formatting the two lines by padding the first line with
spaces as needed. It is not necessary to pad out the complete 32 characters as the power source
will fill any remaining character positions with spaces automatically.
