Command character size at the address A.
A1 = Normal size
A2 = Full size
A3 = Triple size
The following characters and symbols can be displayed at full size:
Alphabetic characters, numeric characters, kana characters, blanks,
the plus sign (+), minus sign (–), period ( . ), equal sign (=), comma
( , ), asterisk (
*
), slash ( / ), paretheses ( ( ) ), square brackets ( [ ] ),
inequality signs ( < and > ), and the sharp (#)
The triple size is 3 times as wide as and 2 times as long as the normal size.
The characters which can be displayed with the triple size characters are
the alphabet, numbers, minus marks, decimal points and blanks. No other
characters can be displayed with the triple size.
Bink control is commanded by the address B
.
B0 = Does not blink.
B1 = Blinks slowly. (Energized for about 1/2 sec. and deenergized
for about 1/4 sec..)
B2 = Blinks quickly. (Energized for about 1/4 sec. and deenergized
for about 1/8 sec..)
CAUTION
When a blink is specified, the display is energized or
deenergized according to the timer condition when the
display is commanded. Therefore, when the display is not
repeated, it will be kept energized or deenergized.
Command the number of blanks at the address K
. The blanks as many as
commanded at K will be displayed. When the blanks are displayed, the
coordinates will be renewed.
Command the format to display the numeric values at the address F.
Command the number of display figures on the left of the point and the
number of figures under the point on the right of the point.
Command at the address Z
whether you do “leading zero suppress” or not
when displaying the numeric values.
Z = 0 .. leading zero suppress will take place.
= 1 .. leading zero suppress will not take place.
The mark will not be displayed when Z is 0.
Command the numeric values to display at the address D
.
Command the sequence No. that the character string is cataloged at the
address P
. The character displayed will be the character string in one
block of the sequence No. commanded with P in the program set at the
character string registered program control variable #8509. The variable
for controlling character–string registration programs (#8509) is defined
as the number of the first program in the character–string registration
program group. Use the five digits for address P to select the desired
character–string registration program in the group.
