The LK202-25-USB uses 8-bit addressing, with the 8th or Least Significant Bit (LSB) bit designated as the
read/write bit, a 0 designates a write address and a 1 designates a read address. The default read address of
the display module will be 0x51, whereas the write address is 0x50 by default. This address may be changed
by using cmd 254 / 51 / <address>. The LK202-25-USB should only be sent addresses that are even (LSB

successfully been completed. However if the buffer has been filled, or the module is too busy processing
data it will respond with a NAK. When performing a multiple byte read within one I
