Character Displays
The type, size, and attributes of characters that can be displayed on the
NT600M screen are shown on the next page. Character type, size, and at-
tributes are set at the time of creation on the Support Tool. When an
RS-232C or RS-422A Host Interface Unit is used, coordinates, characters,
etc, can be designated with commands from the host in Terminal Mode.
