I just found that I can use FSUIPC offsets x6620, 6621 to change content of LCD displays connected to LPT and controlled by FSLCD 5.1 software.

Because such offsets are listed in FSUIPC docs in "Reserved" area I'd like to ask if usage of these offsets is safe (I don't want to destroy something in FS writing carelessly to FSUIPC "Reserved" area). I tested it and it looks fine but you never know...

Those locations are reserved by FSLCD. That's how they get reserved. I don't document them because I have no idea how they are used -- that's private to the software author, and it is up to him whether he publishes details.
