How do I insert a hex value?

[grantb3]

I have an LCD that has a DegC character built in at position 0x06 in the character font. How do I format the string for LCD Smartie?

$Tempname1:$Fill(12)$Temp1 C is what I am doing now, but I want something like:

$Tempname1:$Fill(12)$Temp1 $06
$Tempname1:$Fill(12)$Temp1 #06
$Tempname1:$Fill(12)$Temp1 0x06

Nothing works...

I figured out I could do it by using a hex edit to create the char, which looks like garbage on the PC, but it's OK on the device:

$Tempname1:$Fill(12)$Temp1

That last character (if you can see it) is 06h. It's not a [

You should be able to use $Chr(6) to get the character at 0x06 in the character map.

You might also find a degree symbol at $Chr(223) [0xDF in the character map] - this is the degree symbol on some LCD modules.

LCD Smartie offers a degree symbol on the Misc tab at the left of the config window, but that works using a custom character.

Ok, thanks. I will try that later. $Chr(6) is more attractive than █
