Print String
This part of the program allows the configuration of a user defined print string. The
current user print string is displayed in the Guardian XL Print String text box. This string
can contain both special commands and plain text. Double clicking a command in the
Command List will insert that command into the print string, at the current cursor
position. A command can also be inserted by clicking the command, then clicking ADD
TO LIST. Plain text may be inserted into the string simply by typing it in. No special
command or formatting is required for plain text. As data is entered into the Print String
box, the Example Output window shows an example of how the data will look when
transmitted from the scale.
When this window opens, it will automatically open a comport using the current Comm
Settings. If it cannot open the current comport and communicate with the GuardianXL
indicator, this window will still open but a window will warn the user of this status.
When not connected to a GuardianXL, strings can only be loaded from a file and saved to
a file.
Load from File Loads a user print string from a previously saved file.
Load from Scale Loads a user print string that is stored in the scale.
Save to File Saves the user print string to a file on your computer.
Save to Scale Saves the user print string to the scale.
NOTE: In order for the GuardianXL indicator to print a user print string, the Print String
parameter must be set to user, See Chapter 4 for configuration details.
