Liquid Crystal Display

The LCD is a high contrast display that can be viewed from a wide angle. The display characters are
9.8mm high x 3.5mm wide. Nine chevrons identify displayed information. This identification is
marked on the nameplate and can be in any language. Typical display sequences and a quick reference
to display data are shown in Figure 7.
At power up the segment test pattern is shown. This will remain displayed for a period configurable
at manufacture (2 to 30 seconds) called the dwell time. The default dwell time is 6 seconds.
The display will then sequence through the programmed displays, remaining on each display item for
one 'dwell time'.
Note: the values displayed are frozen for the dwell time - even if the source register increments.
