In the Configuration Label there's a division called Character sets. In this set we see that the character size is 12 * 24 for
this label. Therefore the default value of n=0 (NUL)
If we would like the size of the character to be default, the size will be 1*1. If you would like the width to be 2 by a
height of 1 the value will be 16+0 which will give you 16. We add the Dec value of the width, with the Dec value of the
height to get the value for n. This value is a Dec value which is entered into the program by Ctrl+P+Alt+Dec value.
↔!(DecW+DecH)
i.e.
↔!(16+1)
↔!( Ctrl+P+Alt+17)
↔!
Examples:

When you need to insert a 0 (NUL) value into your program we use the combination Ctrl-
Shift-2. For this reason we set the keyboard to United States style. The @ symbol on the
United States Keyboard is found with the 2 button. Please see the ASCII Chart for values on
characters.
Please note that a NUL value will not be shown on the EDIT program but the cursor would
have moved one character. If you were to do a Hex Dump the Hex value will be 00.
