I read that when defining new characters to the parallax 27977 that the new characters ar stored in RAM and need to be redefined if the power is turned off.
My question is does that pertaine to locations 0 and 1 that are already defined at the factory. if I redefine to these locations will they also be lost at power down or can I program to never forget.

    Mike, all custom characters will be lost at power down. Essentially the backpack is setting those characters up each time the display is powered up. You're just overwriting them. Take care.
