5 Displaying Graphics
5.1 General
created by means of a pixel oriented graphics program, saved as bitmaps, and loaded into the display using
the mogd.exe program. Images may be saved in the display’s memory, and displayed upon command, or
they may be downloaded ’on the fly’ (in-line) during display operation.
taken into account when processing graphics.

• [y space] specifies the number of pixels to place between rows of text (i.e. line spacing).
• [scroll row] specifies the pixel row where scrolling should start (or, if auto scrolling is off, where
This chapter describes the various graphics display commands in detail.
Since the display is a bit mapped device, it may be used to display graphics. Graphic images may be
Note that ’saved’ and ’on the fly’ graphics images are processed differently. These differences must be
• Saved bitmaps: These use each byte (8 bits) to represent a vertical column of 8 pixels. The next byte
• Inline bitmaps: These are processed horizontally and each byte represents a horizontal row of 8 bits,

with the next byte representing the next 8 bits to the right. Orientation is left to right - MSB to LSB,
which is the opposite to the serial transmission sequence (bytes are sent LSB first).
