Hi !
I use in my termometer this command, to display the value of an outside temperature :
"LcdOut $FE, $c0, "Output :", Sign2, DEC (Temperature2 / 100), ".", DEC Temperature2 dig 1, 0"

It's any way to make JUST the temperature to blink ?
For example if temperature < 2 'C (danger of glazed frost) , the value flashes ...and the rest of information displayed remaining stable.
Thanks !

From PBP v2.60 manual:


The command:
LCDOUT $FE, $80 + 4
sets the display to start writing characters at the forth position of the first
line.

So display the text, then display the temperature ON-OFF at will.

"LcdOut $FE, $c0, "Output :", Sign2, DEC (Temperature2 / 100), ".", DEC Temperature2 dig 1
Pause 3000
LcdOut $FE, $c0, "Output : . "
Pause 3000
LcdOut $FE, $c0, "Output :", Sign2, DEC (Temperature2 / 100), ".", DEC Temperature2 dig 1"
