Pticket And Eticket Format Menu - Rice Lake IQ plus 310A Installation Manual

3.3.5 PTICKET AND ETICKET FORMAT MENU

Two separate menus allow specification of the format of weight tickets—PTICKET for
tickets sent to the printer port, and ETICKET for tickets transmitted via the EDP port. The
line end characters to be sent are specified using the TERMIN parameters in each menu.
The ticket format parameters in the table following determine the format of up to four fields
of data printed on a weight ticket. Each field may contain the Gross, Tare or Net value, be
blank or display the current value (gross or net). Each field is located horizontally by enter-
ing a number of leading spaces (LSP) and vertically by entering a number of trailing line
ends (TLE). The trailing line ends in the last field may also be used to advance the printer
to the next ticket as shown in Figure 18.
