NOTE: It is generally not recommended to mix the Genovation command set with
the FEh compatibility mode since the device switches over to compatibility mode
on detection of the FEh. To get back to the Genovation command set, issue one
of the @ commands. To show an @ on the LCD and stay in compatibility mode,
send value 0xA0 (decimal 160).
For more information regarding the HD44780 LCD command set consult the data
sheet for any HD44780 compatible LCD.
