Default Print Formats Table 6-2 shows the default print formats for the and lists the conditions under which each print format is 920i used. The HDR1FMT and HDR2FMT formats are used to specify header information that can be used by the other ticket formats.
6.3.2 Using the Front Panel If you have no access to equipment for communication through a serial port or are working at a site where such equipment cannot be used, you can use the PFORMT menu (see Figure 6-2 on page 45) to customize the print formats.
6.3.3 Using Serial Commands With a personal computer, terminal, or remote keyboard attached to one of the 920i serial ports, you can use the serial command set described in Table 6-1 on page 42 to customize the print format strings. To view the current setting of a format string, type the name of the print format and press the key.

Setpoints 920i indicator provides 100 conÞgurable setpoints for control of both indicator and external equipment functions. Setpoints can be conÞgured to perform actions or functions based on speciÞed parameter conditions. Parameters associated with various setpoint kinds can, for example, be conÞgured to perform functions (print, tare, accumulate), to change the state of a digital output controlling indicator or external equipment functions, or to make conditional decisions.
Page 54
Kind Description Batch Continuous Ö Ö –REL Negative relative setpoint. Performs functions based on a specified value below a referenced setpoint, using the same weight mode as the referenced setpoint. Ö Ö %REL Percent relative setpoint. Performs functions based on a specified percentage of the target value of a referenced setpoint, using the same weight mode as the referenced setpoint.
Page 55
Kind Description Batch Continuous Ö CONCUR Allows a digital output to remain active over a specified portion of the batch sequence. Two types of concur setpoints can be configured: The digital output associated with this setpoint becomes Type 1 (VALUE=0): active when the START setpoint becomes the current batch step and remains active until the END setpoint becomes the current batch step.
