I think the character mode is only used for SliMP3, SB1 and
Squeezsslave.  Softsqueeze uses the graphics bit map display.  There is
a module to handle emulated SB2 and higher devices to provide support
for cli and jive displaystatus but that does not mean characters are
sent to the emulated-devices which had graphics displays - generally
SB2 and older.

The following is in the module Text.pm

Code:
--------------------
    sub vfdmodel {
        my $display = shift;
        my $client = $display->client;
  
        if ($client->isa('Slim::Player::SLIMP3')) {
                if ($client->revision >= 2.2) {
                        my $mac = $client->macaddress();
                        if ($mac eq '00:04:20:03:04:e0') {
                                return 'futaba-latin1';
                        } elsif ($mac eq '00:04:20:02:07:6e' ||
                                         $mac =~ /^00:04:20:04:1/ ||
                                         $mac =~ /^00:04:20:00:/        ) {
                                return 'noritake-european';
                        } else {
                                return 'noritake-katakana';
                        }
                } else {
                        return 'noritake-katakana';
                }
        } elsif ($client->isa('Slim::Player::SqueezeSlave')) {  
                return 'squeezeslave';
        } else {
                # Squeezebox 1
                return 'noritake-european';
        }
  }
