ML8 Emulation

Note: The ML8 emulation function is not available if you are using HR Series 
printheads.

The ML8 Emulation option allows you to operate the PatrionPlus system 
using a Keyboard Input Device (KID) or other external device that 
communicates via an RS-232 interface. (See Appendix A for the interface 
commands.)

When using ML8 Emulation mode note the following:

• Messages created with the PatrionPlus controller cannot be viewed 

or printed using the KID. 

• Only 7 DOT and 16 DOT fonts are available for messages created 

with a KID. 

• Any messages created in ML8 emulation mode will be saved in

Task 1.

1) Install the KID or other external device. (See “Optional External 

Devices” on page 3-26.)

2) From the home screen on the controller, press Utility.

3) Highlight ML8 Emulation, then press Enter. The system transfers 

control of the PatrionPlus to the device and displays the Emulation 
Active screen.
