Custom characters.
0xFE //command prefix
0x4E //this starts the custom characters
0x00 //0x00 to 0x07 for 8 custom characters.
0xC //here you just send 8 bytes of the custom character.
0x12 //Here is the degree symbol
0x12
0xC
0x00
0x00
0x00
0x00
ok, now it is defined.
so any time you need to display the character you send our 0x00 for the first custom character. 0x01, 0x02 and so on for the other. You only need to do the define once, then you just type the custom character. That simple.
