Character code
No
character
is defined
for
OOH~1FH,
80H~8FH
and
EOH~FFH
in the
Code
Table
(APPENDIX-1).
Although
the characters and graphics shown in the character code table for this plotter will be
displayed on the CRT or LCD, some of them may not be drawn by this plotter.
Characters
which
cannot
be
plotted
will
be
ignored
when
sent from
the computer.
The
plotter resumes operation when it receives a character which it can draw.,
®
Characters from 80H~9FH
and EOH~FFH
on the PC-5000, will not be plotted.
®
Because DATA
is transfered from the computer to this plotter by character codes instead
of character patterns, in some cases the results appear different from those shown on the
computer's display screen.
Line feed code
The line feed code for this plotter is CR
(ODH).
If the line feed code for the computer in its
initial state is LF (OAH), change it to CR (ODH).

Automatic line feed
During
operation
in the TEXT
mode,
when
the number
of data items from the computer
exceeds the specified
number
of digits, this plotter automatically
carries out a CR/LF
and
continues operation.
Therefore, if the end of the output data from the computer coincides
with the position of the automatic line feed during list printing or other operations, one line
is fed without any printing.
