n1 is a one-byte binary number that is the less significant byte of the two-byte
parameter count.
n2 is a one-byte binary number that is the more significant byte of the two-
byte parameter count. Zero is a valid count.
n3 and n4 are always 0.
Hc and Lc are two-byte values that specify the code page to be used.
See"Code Page Table" on page A-1 for decimal and hexadecimal values.
This command is ignored if an unavailable code page is specified.
To calculate Hc Lc for a code page that is not shown:
– Divide the code page number, such as 437, by 256.
– The whole number result is the Hc value.
– The remainder is the Lc value.
– If your code page has an alphabetic character, such as 437G, add 10,000
to the code page number, then divide by 256.
