PA: Send ASCII data to segment display¶
FAST Serial Protocol: Overview & First Steps
This documentation section is about the FAST Serial Protocol (FSP) commands, which are the low-level commands a host computer sends to a FAST board. Most FAST Pinball makers do not need to know about these details, since the pinball game framework (such as the Mission Pinball Framework) handles this communication for you.
If you're writing your own game framework, we have a series of programming guides. Also, be sure to read the overview of how FSP works and how to connect first.
Coming soon!
This section of the documentation is not yet complete and will be coming soon. However, if you need this now, and/or you want to share what documentation is most important to you, please post to the #docs channel in the FAST Pinball Slack community. Thanks!
PA:
Same as PS: commands, but ASCII data is set directly to the display instead of segment data
Example:
PA:1,TEST<CR>
This will write the word “TEST” on the first line of the first display.
N or > jump the next page, P or < for previous, search with S or ?
