§

 

s is the number of bytes in vertical direction.  s=3. 

§

 

n is the starting ASCII code of user-defined character. 

§

 

m is the ending ASCII code of user-defined character. 

When define only one character, n equal m.  The maximum number of user-
defined characters is 96. 

§

 

a is the number of dots in horizontal direction. 

§

 

p is the data of user-defined characters.  There are (s x a) bytes in each 
character, the total number of user-defined characters is m-n+1.  

§

 

user-defined characters are valid until re-defined, reset or power off. 

Format of the user-defined characters is shown as follows:

 

 

p1

p2

p4 p7

p5

p3 p6

m for setting bit-map graphics mode; n1 n2 for setting number of dots; [d]k for 
setting contents of dots.  

m=0, 1, 32, 33.  n1 = 0 ~ 255, n2 = 0 ~ 3. d = 0 ~ 255. 
k = n1 + 256 x n2,  (m=0,1) 
k = (n1 + 256 x n2) x 3, (m=32,33) 

u

 

The number of horizontal dots of the graphics is n1 + 256 x n2.  

u

 

If the number of dot is more than one line, the extra portion will be 
ignored. (refer to the following table) 

u

 

d is the bit-map data, for 1 of bit means the related dot will be printed and 
for 0 of bit means the related dot will not print  ( k is the total no. of data)
