Using the DISP-Command to update the Display on the 48 is very slow, i found out (heavy performance problems...). So I'm trying to display only the characters that change (that are a few), but for this, I need a function that allows to display a character on any x-location without overwriting the preceding characters. It's a kind of TAB-Command that I'm looking for. If anybody has some idea PLEASE write me! Daniel Ruegemer Germany
