display.clear()
Remarks
This function will switch to the user screen and then clear the display.
The display.clear(), display.setcursor() (on page 13-105), and
display.settext() (on page 13-106) functions are overlapped, non-blocking
commands. That is, the script will NOT wait for one of these commands to
complete. These non-blocking functions do not immediately update the display. For
performance considerations, they write to a shadow and will update the display as
soon as processing time becomes available.

display.getannunciators()
