When you double click on a Graphic LCD object, a window like the one pictured will open.

At the top of the window, information about your device and the properties of this particular channel will be listed.
In the middle, brightness and contrast of the LCD screen can be adjusted.
At the bottom, there are a number of buttons to demonstrate the functionality of the graphics LCD:

Basic Example: Write some text, lines, boxes and a bitmap to the screen.
SaveFrameBuffer: Save the current screen to memory.
RecallFrameBuffer: Load the saved screen from memory and print it to the screen.
Async Example: Prints a bitmap to the screen asynchronously (can occur while other draw functions are still running).
Sleep/Unsleep: Toggles sleep mode, where the Phidget is still attached but in a minimal power consumption state.
Clear Screen: Erases the screen.
