## LCDAnimatedCharacter **Kind**: global class * [LCDAnimatedCharacter](#LCDAnimatedCharacter) * [new LCDAnimatedCharacter(lcd, memoryPosition, frames, frameRate, [repeatCount])](#new_LCDAnimatedCharacter_new) * [.startAnimating([performReset])](#LCDAnimatedCharacter+startAnimating) * [.stopAnimating([performReset])](#LCDAnimatedCharacter+stopAnimating) * [.reset()](#LCDAnimatedCharacter+reset) ### new LCDAnimatedCharacter(lcd, memoryPosition, frames, frameRate, [repeatCount]) Creates a new `LCDAnimatedCharacter` object. Note: you should not instantiate this class directly. Instead, use the `createAnimatedCharacter` function of an initialized `LCD` object. | Param | Type | Default | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | lcd | LCD | | The `LCD` instance. | | memoryPosition | Number | | The Display-O-Tron memory position (should be between 0 and 7). | | frames | Array | | An array containing at least two arrays, each containing eight 8-bit integers. | | frameRate | Number | | The frame rate (frames per second). | | [repeatCount] | Number | 0 | The repeat count. 0 means infinite. Optional (0 by default). | ### lcdAnimatedCharacter.startAnimating([performReset]) Starts animating the character. **Kind**: instance method of [LCDAnimatedCharacter](#LCDAnimatedCharacter) | Param | Type | Default | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [performReset] | Boolean | false | A value that indicates whether the character should be reset. Optional (false by default). | ### lcdAnimatedCharacter.stopAnimating([performReset]) Stops animating the character. **Kind**: instance method of [LCDAnimatedCharacter](#LCDAnimatedCharacter) | Param | Type | Default | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [performReset] | Boolean | false | A value that indicates whether the character should be reset. Optional (false by default). | ### lcdAnimatedCharacter.reset() Resets the character. **Kind**: instance method of [LCDAnimatedCharacter](#LCDAnimatedCharacter)
