Note

• EDP or Electronic Data Processing refers to a PC or a terminal that can enter ASCII characters using a keyboard and   a 

screen via the EDP interface of the 120 Plus.

• Some characters cannot be displayed on the 120 Plus front panel (See the ASCII character chart in Appendix C - ASCII 

Set and Specifications and Appendix E - Front Panel Display Characters on pages 44 and 48.) and are shown as blanks. 
The 120 Plus can send or receive any ASCII character; the character printed depends on the particular ASCII character 
set implemented for the receiving device.
