When off due to D = 0, display data remains in the DD RAM. It can be displayed immediately by setting D = 1.

C: The cursor displays when C = 1 and does not display when C = 0.
Even if the cursor disappears, the function of I/D, etc. does not change during display data write.
The cursor is displayed using 5 dots in the 8th line when the 5 x 7 dot character font is selected and 5 dots in the 11th line when the 5 x 10 dot character font is selected.
