Text
Write Text
DM
“$A5,<dh>,<dl>,<ncb>,‘DM’, <start line>,<text color>,<text background color>, <screen
background>,<size and shadow>,<timeout>,<message bytes>” (variable bytes)
Clears current text, displays text message over video (default) or blank background. The built-in
character generator can accept up to 40 characters of text (including carriage returns), 28 characters
per line. Use a hex $0D or decimal 13 in the text as a carriage return, which will advance CG to the next
line, first space on the right.
Start Line - 1-9
Text Color - 1-7= White
Text Background Color
–
0-7=Transparent (no background)
Full screen background
–
0=normal insert over video
Size and Shadow
–
0-3=small text with drop shadow
Time-Out
–
0=15-second display, 1=persistent
Persistent text stays on screen until the next DM, or new Menu or channel.
Ex1:
“$A5,<dh>,<dl>,10,‘DM’, 2,7,0,0,1,0,’TEST’ ” displays the word TEST on the second line, white text,
inserted over video, small size with drop shadow, and timing out after 15 seconds.
Ex2:
“$A5,<dh>,<dl>,2,‘DM’ ” clears on
-screen display, also clears persistent text
The ATSC uses white text and clear backgrounds when it receives a Text or Background Color
parameter between 1 and 7, and accepts values 0-3 for text size and shadow. This allows compatibility
with Smart TVs mixed in the same system that can display other colors and fonts.
Return
EB
“$A5,<dh>,<dl>,2,’EB’ ” (6 bytes)
Moves cursor down to the first column of the next row.
Text Timeout
DQ
“$A5,<dh>,<dl>,3,’DQ’, <time>” (7 bytes)
Sets screen timeout to specified time in seconds (1-254). If time is 0 or 255, any text on the screen will
persist indefinitely, or until cleared.
