Split Screen - Husky MP2500 Manual

7.3.4 Split screen

Many standard applications use a particular screen line (usually the top or
bottom line) for status information and the rest for the information which is
being entered or displayed. As the LCD screen shows whichever part of the
full screen is being updated, this could lead to a lot of distracting screen
movement.
To help prevent this, you can split the virtual screen into two parts, and
display each in a separate part of the LCD screen. Each part of the LCD
can either be fixed in position or scrolled to show output in the
corresponding part of the virtual screen.
For example, if your application uses line 25 as a status line, you could split
the virtual screen at line 25, and split the LCD screen at line 10. Ensure
screen font mode is 6 x 4:
