4.9.1 Direct write
When this mode is activated, the user can write decimal values from the GUI directly
to the on-board LED display on the PCAL6524EV-ARD board. For the Digit 1, 2, and 3
(D10, D11, and D12), the user can write decimal numbers from 0 to 9. For Digit 4 (D9),
the user can set the letter “U” or “d” (the initials of “Up” and “down”). Note that the digit
4 indication is controlled by the MAX_CTRL_1 control line (not through the one of I/O
line of the PCAL6524 IC). The dots of the digits can be set separately. See
