cated to host words.
The following two methods can be used to set clock data.
S Setting from the System Menu
Display the menu for displaying and setting clock data from the System Menu
and make the settings. For details, refer to 6-11-2 "Displaying/Setting the Calen-
dar and Clock" (page 215).
S Rewriting numeral memory tables 254 and 255
Numeral memory tables number 254 and 255 for clock data setting are rewritten
using the memory table copy function to set the clock data (it is not possible to
rewrite numeral memory tables 254 and 255 from the host). For details, refer to
8-10 "Display and Setting of Calendar Clock" (page 546).
The following data can be printed out by connecting a printer to the NT31/NT31C.
- The currently displayed screen (hard copy)
- Display history/alarm history record data
In order to print out data at a printer connected to the NT31/NT31C, the type of
printer used and the printing method must be set with the memory switches of the
NT31/NT31C.
- Type of printer:
The following printer types can be used: printers that emulate NEC PC-
PR201H, and printers that comply with the ESC/P 24-J83C (color) or ESC/P
24-J82 (monochrome) standard, or printers that comply PCL 5.
- Printing method:
When a color printer is used, color printing can be performed without additional
settings. When using a monochrome printer, printing in which colors are ex-
pressed as 8 grayscale levels ("tones") is possible. However, the NT31 is not
capable of color printing or "tone" printing.
When PCL 5 is used, only "tone" printing is possible (color printing is not sup-
ported).
For details on the method for setting memory switches, refer to 6-9-5 "Setting the
"Printer Controller" (page 194) and 6-9-6 "Setting the "Print Method" (NT31C
Only)" (page 195).
