Print, Triangles - SATO GL408e Programming Reference Manual

PRINT, TRIANGLES

FUNCTION Specifies the printing of triangles.
FORMAT
<ESC>FT
Place anywhere within the data stream.
EXAMPLE <ESC>A
<ESC>H0200<ESC>V0100<ESC>FT,100,8,100,0
<ESC>Q1
<ESC>Z
OUTPUT This command sets the base reference point to the apex of the triangle and can be
registered to the format.
(4-8)
NOTES
This command is only enabled while online.
The value for the base length can be omitted and its value will be equal to the length
of sides.
The key buffer size is 1KB. One key entry information requires 2 bytes and up to 512
information entries are available.
The key buffer acts as ring buffer. When the key entry exceeds the maximum entry
capacity, the oldest entry information will be overwritten.
When the exclusive use of key is initiated, the key buffer is initialized and vice-versa
when it is terminated. As a result, key entry information is obtainable following this
operation.
Label printing or label error detection will be performed as usual even when the
exclusive use of key is activated. Error occurrence while the exclusive use of key is
activated will release the exclusive state. After recovering from the error and going
back online, the exclusive use of key will be active again.
Exclusive use of key is initially off when powering on the printer.
Key Entry <IZ> is invalid when the exclusive use of key is activated.
