The X and Y coordinates are measured from the message center area’s top left corner. If a line contains
substrings with different font sizes, the text is aligned on the bottom.
For example, consider the following message:
The following string defines this message:
Information:/X20Y60F1C4/Speed:/X120F0C1/12km//h/X20Y120F1/Fault:
/X120C2/2,3/F0/[1]
The following table describes how the message is formatted:
Substring
Description
Information:
The default formats are applied because the substring
is not preceded by a formatting instruction.
/X20Y60F1C4/Speed:
“Speed:” is formatted as follows:
• X and Y coordinates: (20,60)
• Font size: F1
• Color: Blue (C4)
/X120F0C1/12km//h
“12km/h” is formatted as follows:
• X coordinate: 120
• Font size: F0
• Color: Red (C1)
The Y coordinate is not specified, so the previously-
specified Y coordinate (60) is applied.
/X20Y120F1/Fault:
“Fault:” is formatted as follows:
• X and Y coordinates: (20,120)
• Font size: F1
The color is not specified, so the previously-specified
color (red) is applied.
/X120C2/2,3
“2,3” is formatted as follows:
• X coordinate:120
• Color: Yellow (C2)
The font size and Y coordinate are not specified, so the
previously-specified font and Y coordinate are applied.
F0/[1]
“[1]” is formatted with the F0 font size indicator. The
other formats are not specified, so the previously-
specified color and coordinates are used.
