Expand description

The screen-size record: a 256-byte EEPROM-backed record at a linear flash address that the page-addressed frames cannot reach.

A block erase clears it and a firmware write never restores it, so it is read and set by value. The other card commands, one frame each, are here too.

Functions§

geometry
Geometry encoded in a record.
looks_erased
True when the record has been erased rather than programmed.
read
Read the record off the card.
reload
Ask the card to reload its parameters from flash; full sends the vendor’s post-save frame instead of the bare reload.
screen_size
Show the record, and optionally set the geometry it carries. Returns the geometry the card holds when the command finishes.
set_layout
Tell the card its own size and the size of the whole screen.
test_mode
Select the card’s built-in test pattern; 0 is off.
test_sweep
Step through the card’s test patterns, pausing on each, then switch off.
