Once you have arrived at a VMI value, locate this number
in the Decimal column of the ASCII table in Appendix B.
Depending on your computer system, this Decimal value
or the Hex or Octal equivalent of this value is what you
substitute for "n" in the command.
The range for VMI is 0 to 125. The most common set-
tings for "n" in the VMI command sequence are: 13 (4
lines per inch), 9 (6 lines per inch), and 7 (8 lines per inch).
Examples:
<ESC><RS><CR>
4 lines per inch.
<ESC><RS><BEL>
8 lines per inch.
