Reset function
When you turn the power supply on using the internal reset circuit, the module automatically returns to its initial
(reset) settings. At the initial settings, the following
instructions are carried out.
(1) Clear display
The busy flag remains in the busy condition (BF = 1) until
initialization is completed. This takes 15 ms.
(2) Function set
DL = 1: 8-bit interface data length
N = 1
F = 0: 5 7 dot matrix
(3) Display on/off control
D = 0: Display off
C = 0: Cursor off
B = 0: Blinking off
(4) Entry mode set
1/D = 1: +1 (increment)
S = 0: No shift
(5) Select DD RAM
Depending on the power supply’s rise and fall times when
it is turned on, there may be times when the initialization
cannot be completed. Therefore, be aware of the following timing relationship.
t
OFF regulates the power supply breaks, or on and off
times.
Note) When the above power supply conditions are not met, the internal re-
set circuit will not operate properly.
