10.4 Other scale tokens
In addition to the above, you can examine the tokens available and do much more with
the data. For example suppose the Customer’s PC can’t cope with decimal point in the
weight value from the scale. We can add optional parameters after the Gross weight
token to remove the decimal point. This print format character sequence would look like
this …
[ = t501 indicates the start of an optional parameter
68 = D for decimal point parameter
50 = 2 for hide decimal point
] = t502 indicates the end of the optional parameter
