Once you have arrived at a HMI 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 HMI is 1 to 125. The most common set-
tings for "n" in the HMI command sequence are: 9 (15
characters per inch), 10 (13 characters per inch), 11 (12
characters per inch), 12 (11 characters per inch), 13 (10
characters per inch), 25 (5 characters per inch). The 10,
12, and 15 characters per inch values can be set through
the printer keypad (Group D Options 1 and 2).
Examples:
<ESC><US><CR>
<ESC><US><VT>
10 characters per inch.
12 characters per inch.
Refer to your tenninal' s documentation for instructions on
embedding the Hex, Octal, or Decimal values of control
characters in the command sequence.
I
<ESC>11 SET HORIZONTAL TAB AT
CURRENT POSITION
This command is used
to
set individual tab stops. Move
the current position to the desired tab position by issuing
the proper number of <SP> commands. The actual distance
represented by a <SP> is determined by the HMI. Issue
the above command at the current position to set the tab
stop. To determine the desired tab stop positions, use the
following fonnula:
Horizontal Tab
=
(Horizontal Position+HMI) + 1
The "Horizontal Tab" will be the number of the tab stop
(1 -
160). "Horizontal Position" is a whole number ex-
pressing the number of 1/120 inch increments from the
left edge of the page.
