[Method of data transmission]
1)
Single character registration
Select the address to be defined (character code) from among 20H to
FFH and designate is as A1. When registering a single character,
starting and ending addresses match each other. That is, A1=A2.
<Example>
A 6
×
6 dot matrix full dot pattern is to be registered in address 41H
(code for the fixed character “A”. (Numerals are hexadecimal.)
ESC + “&” + A1 + A2 + “Pattern data (6 bytes)”
1B
36 41 41 FF FF FF FF FF FF
In the successive controls, a 6
×
8 dot matrix full dot is output whenever the
character code 41H is specified. (Character “A” cannot be accessed.)
2) Multiple character registration
By repeating the single character registration, a maximum of 8
characters can be registered. When defining multiple characters in a
successive address (character code), register pattern data for a
maximum of 8 characters by designation A1 as the starting address
and A2 as the ending address.
((A1-A2)+1)x6 bytes are required for pattern data.
Note: A1 < A2, A2 – A1
≤ 7
[Pattern data configuration]
Pattern data to be registered must consist of 6 bytes per character. That is,
pattern data configured by a 6
× 8 dot matrix is broken up into 6 vertically
positioned units each of which is represented by 1 byte of data. All together,
6 bytes of data are transmitted.
<Example> When transmitting the following data:
[Printing of registered letters]
To print registered character, in the same manner as printing other fixed
characters, use the commands (CR, LF, ESC + B + n).
