SOFTWARE MANUAL C32
14 COMMAND OVERVIEW
If there is no explicit indication in the commands, the parameters are non-negative integers. Examples are generally
indicated as command identifier specified with trailing parameters. A complete sequence is only specified if the effect of
sub-commands is to be explained in the context.
14.1 SUPERIOR COMMANDS FOR FRAME SPECIFICATION
To open a new frame, the cursor position is set to the origin of the new frame (upper left corner). Frames have to be
defined in one piece. Therefore opening a new frame concludes the previous one. Subsequent appending of data is not
provided.
Once the print data are no longer compatible with the opened frame (frame class changes), a new frame will open
automatically. In this case, the cursor position is automatically updated. However GeBE reserves the right to change the
algorithm for cursor position update without notice. Therefore, it is recommended to specifically set the cursor position
with each frame change. This is also documented for further commands closing the actual frame.
In addition to the original coordinates further details are required for the positioning of a frame in the printing area:
Orientation as rotation against the printing area and if necessary, additionally the width and the height of the frame
(based on the contents) will be specified. Alternatively, the postion of the origin's opposite corner can be indicated. The
system then calculates therefrom the frame orientation as a multiple rotation 90°, as well as its width and height.
14.1.1 SET CURSOR POSITION (open frame)
The position specifications refer to the coordinate system of the printing area. The cursor position is the origin of the
frame, i.e. its upper left corner, which is the center for possible rotations.
