Display Clear (C/D= "1") This command clears the GRAM.
This command should always be applied at power on or reset. In the period of 1mS following the
issue of this command, the module requires internal processing and does not accept any
commands.

Command Select Clear Control Code
To clear the GRAM area, G1C or G0C bit must be asserted. By asserting HM bit, both data write position
address and display start position address which selected by G1C, G0C, DC also be reset.
HM = (1 or 0) equals (Initialize data write position address and display start position address or Not initialize).
G1C= (1 or 0) equals (GRAM area 1 is cleared or GRAM area 1 not cleared)
G0C= (1 or 0) equals (GRAM area 0 cleared or GRAM area 0 not cleared)
GRAM area 1: X= 00H-7FH, Y=0H – 7H (Display data write position address)
GRAM area 2: X= 00H-7FH, Y=8H – FH (Display data write position address)

9.5 Display Area Set (C/D="1", only used for Initialize Set)
This command sets the display area block as Graphic Display (GRAM) or Character display
(DDRAM). But, this is version which has no Font ROM. Therefore, DDRAM is not available, all of
display area block must be assigned to GRAM as the initialize setting, and this must be done when
the module is powered up and also every time the reset is applied. Setup is performed by 3-byte
command.

9.6 GRAM Data Write position Address Set (Graphic Display) (C/D="1")
This command specifies both X & Y data write position address.
9.6.1 GRAM Data Write Position X Address Set
Data write position X address of GRAM expressed with 8 bits (00Hex-7FHex) is specified.
Refer to 8.1 Graphic Display (GRAM) on Page #5.

9.7 GRAM Display Start Position Address Set (C/D="1")
9.7.1 Horizontal Shift
This command specifies the address that a display pattern can be positioned to by 8 bits (00Hex
to 7FHex). This is equivalent to an offset in the X-axis.
