Sets the cursor move direction and specifies or not to shift the display. These operations are performed during data read and write.

Details
I/D: Increments (I/D = 1) or Decrements (I/D = 0) the DD RAM address by 1 when a character code is written into or read from the DD RAM. The cursor or blink moves to the right when incremented by 1 and to the left when decremented by 1. The same applies to writing to and reading from the CG RAM.

S: Shifts the entire display either to the right or to the left when S is 1; to the left when I/D = 1 and to the right when I/D = 0. Thus it looks as if the cursor stands still and the display moves.

Execution Time = 40µs / 120µs
