I need to move the screen text upward to make it scroll. Can I use the MA command to do it?

if yes then how do I write XY position when greater than 255?

the screen is full with 16 lines of text, so I need to move up line 2 to line 16, to position 1 to make line 16 empty for the new line coming in.

I use python so the command should be: serial_out 'MA' + chr(0) + chr(10) + width (320) + chr(230) + chr(0) + chr(10)

width 320 shuld be written as: chr(1) + chr(64). how do I tell lcd that width will be sent with two bytes insted of one?

Thank you for the help.
