Power Up ^F
Disable (factory default).
Enable. Selects free format mode as the power-up default and selects the graphics mode ^PY as the
power-up default. Free format causes the VGL to ignore carriage returns, line feeds, and all
characters below hex 20 sent from the host.
Power Up ^PY
Disable (factory default).
Enable. Selects the graphics mode ^PY as the power-up default.
LPI
The number of lines to be printed per inch. For example, at 6 lpi there is 1/6 inch from the top of one print
line to the top of the next print line.
Graphics Options
The following are several options which configure printing output.
Slash 0
This parameter allows you to print the numeral "0" with or without the slash. This option applies to all
character sets except OCR-A and OCR-B.
Disable (factory default). Zero is printed without a slash.
Enable. Zero is printed with a slash.
Ignore Dots
Disable (factory default).
Enable. Causes the VGL to expect position values to be specified in only 1/10ths of an inch. If the dot
position is also given, it is treated as text.
Append Rotated
Disable (factory default). Logos and alphanumeric strings are treated as separate elements.
Enable. Appends logos to an alphanumeric string rotated in a clockwise, counterclockwise, or
inverted orientation.
Truncate Alpha
When enabled, this parameter prevents the printing of Error 48 (Element Off Page Error) if alphanumeric
data, including spaces, extends beyond the right side of the form. The options include:
Enable (factory default)
Disable
True Vert 1/10
Disable (factory default). A vertical 1/10 of an inch parameter is used as 7/72 of an inch. The
absolute move is slightly smaller than expected. For example, a one-inch move would be 70/72 of an
inch. Vertical moves that have the same value are identical in length.
Enable. A vertical 1/10 inch parameter is used as 1/10 inch. Rounding occurs to the nearest 1/72
inch. This can cause vertical moves that have the same value to differ by
±
1/72 inch.
