About this manual

The GU128x64D-K610A8 is a 128 × 64 high‑brightness dot graphic VFD display that operates from a single 5 V supply and supports multiple interfaces (asynchronous, SPI, I²C, parallel). It offers four ASCII fonts, proportional mini font, and up to eight user‑definable macros.

The handbook details the electrical and environmental specifications, describes the command set for cursor movement, graphic writes, window control, and brightness adjustment, and explains how to configure the module’s communication mode using the rear push‑button switch. Wiring diagrams and timing information for each interface are also included.

Frequently asked questions

How do I adjust the display brightness?

Send the Brightness command (1BH + level) with a level value from F8H (off) to FFH (maximum).

Which command selects a font on the module?

Use the Select Font command (1CH, 1DH, or 1EH) to choose proportional mini, fixed 5×7, or fixed 10×14 fonts.

How is the module reset to its default state?

Apply a low‑level signal to the /RES line; the module clears the display and restores power‑on defaults.
