1. FEATURES
1.) Data can be displayed on 20 columns x 2 lines.
2.) Green color and large character are easy to eyes.
3.) The display panel is ad ustable to provide the best view angle.
4.) The VFD Utility setting emulates commands mode, baud rate and international
characters.
5.) Command emulation modes include: POS7300, EPSON ESC/POS, DSP800,
ADM787/ADM788, AEDEX/EMAX, UTC, and CD5220.
6.) Display area can be controlled by window function.
7.) Provides an interface based in RS232, and baud rate from 4800 to 38400 bps.
8.) Reverse characters can be specified using the Epson command set.
9.) Support software designing user-defined characters and downloading setup
parameters to the display. Once in the display new characters are stored in
on-volatile EEPROM.
10.) Power input (12 Vdc).

5. SOFTWARE STATUS SETTING OMMANDS
When the device is POWER ON, it will read the EEPROM Setting to set the Command Type, Baud
Rate, Parity, Data Length, Demo Mode and International Character. User can re-set the Software
Status Setting Commands as following, and Status Setting will be saving to EEPROM:
5.1. Baud Rate Setting ommand
5.2. Parity heck Setting ommand
5.3. Data Length Setting ommand
