Refer to Figure 6 for a visual representation of most header parameters.
The following is a description of each header element:
HFM
NUMBER OF FIELDS IN LAYOUT
This parameter is used to specify the number of fields in the layout. If more fields are defined
than what is specified for HFM, the extras will be ignored. To prevent software confusion, do
not set the HFM parameter to a number higher than the number of fields defined.
LSX
TAG SIZE X DIRECTION
Specifies the width of the tag in dots. For example: A 3" wide tag would have an LSX of 3 x
154 = 462 dots. (154 dots = 1 inch)
LSY
TAG SIZE Y DIRECTION
Specifies the height of the tag in dots.
WEB
WEB SIZE
The width, measured in dots, of the webbing that is found on the left side of the tag.
