SYSTEM MANUAL Issue 1.0 5 DEC 2009
Moving the cursor back over the various characters contained in the message
may be used to validate the message. Note that the field designator will normally
appear as - - - - indicating an alpha/numeric code as would be seen by moving
the cursor adjacent to the M F G or the E X P on the second line. The same
designator will be seen when the cursor is placed adjacent to any non-
changeable field including the space character.
Moving the cursor under a variable programmable field will display the correct
field designator in place of the - - - - alpha/numeric designator.
For example, moving the cursor adjacent to
the S (shift code) on the second line would
display the field designator as < < < <
NOTE for clarification the underscore
character is used in the example to indicate
the character position.
The various field designators displayed are:
- - - - Alpha/Numeric non-changeable data
# # # # Sequence number field
< < < < Shift code field
OM Offset date month field
OD Offset date day field
OY Offset date year field
DM Current date month field
DD Current date day field
DY Current date year field
TH Current time hour field
TM Current time minute field
NOTE: ONLY 15 OBJECTS ARE PERMITTED IN A PARTICULAR
MESSAGE TOTAL. IN THE ABOVE EXAMPLE THE FIRST LINE
OF DATA MFG DM/DD/DY HH:MM CONTAINS 10 OBJECT
FIELDS. FOR PURPOSES OF CLARITY THE SPACE
CHARACTER IS SHOWN AS THE UNDERLINE _ CHARACTER
