Eight-Pin Graphics Control Codes
All 8-pin graphics functions require parameters,
n1
and
n2
, which represent the
length of the graphics string that follows the Select Graphics Mode control code.
These parameters are calculated using a temporary variable,
n
:
•
n
= total number of graphics dots needed for the graphic string
•
n2
= integer of (n divided by 256)
•
n1
= remainder of the n2 calculation
Decimal: 27 116 0
