SANYO computer series. You will note immediately there
are 256 possible codes. The character set is a combina­
tion of both the standard 7-bit ASCII set and the
graphic characters that are on the second half of the
set (with the 8 bit at a high state). The configura­
tion for the digits in the X dimension repesent bits:
B7 B6 B5 BH
and the bits in the Y (vertical) dimension represent
the bits:
