Reading: Invalid
By writing data into the display memory allocated to the LCD segment (on the panel), the segment can be
turned on or off. After an initial reset, the contents of the display memory are undefined.

4.5.5 Programming note

Because the display memory is for writing only, re-writing the contents with computing instructions (e.g.,
AND, OR, etc.) which come with read-out operations is not possible. To perform bit operations, a buffer
to hold the display data is required on the RAM.
