    The LCD Module has built in a T6963C LSI controller, It has an 8-bit parallel data bus and control
 lines for writing or reading through an MPU interface, it has a 128-word character generator ROM
 ( refer to Table 1. ), which can control an external display RAM of up to 8K bytes. Allocation of text,
 graphics and external character generator RAM can be made easily and the display window can be
 moved freely within the allocated memory range.
     RAM Interface
    The external RAM is used to store display data( text, graphic and external CG data ). It can be freely
    allocated to the memory area( 8 K byte max ).

  (1) Status Read
    A status check must be performed before data is read or written.

    (Note 1) It is necessary to check STA0 and STA1 at the same time.
             There is a possibility of erroneous operation due to a hardware interrupt.
    (Note 2) For most modes STA0/STA1 are used as a status check.
    (Note 3) STA2 and STA3 are valid in Auto mode; STA0 and STA1 are invalid.

(a)                                            (b)
(Note 4) When using the MSB=0 command, a Status Read must be performed.
         If a status check is not carried out, the T6963C cannot operate normally, even after a delay
         time.
         The hardware interrupt occurs during the address calculation period (at the end of each
         line).
         If a MSB=0 command is sent to the T6963C during this period, the T6963C enters Wait
         status.
         If a status check is not carried out in this state before the next command is sent, there is the
         possibility that the command or data date will not be received.

    If the graphic area setting is set to match the desired number of columns on the LCD, the
     addressing scheme will be automatically modified so that the start address of each line equals the
     end address of the previous line +1.

‧Date Read/Write
  This command is used for writing data from the MPU to external display RAM, and reading data from
  external display RAM to the MPU. Data Write/Data Read should be executed after setting address
  using Set Address Pointer command. The address pointer can be automatically incremented or
  decremented using this command.
  (Note) This command is necessary for each 1-byte datum.
         Refer to the following flowchart.

‧Screen Peek
  This command is used to transfer 1 byte of displayed data to the data stack; this byte can then be read
  from the MPU by data access. The logical combination of text and graphic display data on the LCD
  screen can be read by this command.
  The status (STA6) should be checked just after the Screen Peek command. If the address determined by
  the Set Address Pointer command is not in the graphic area, this commands is ignored and a status flag
  (STA6) is set.
  Refer to the following flowchart.
