Program and Label Parts - Continuous
—where
XX
represents the
maximum parts needed to fill a receiving tube. This is followed by a 2500
hex file.
After the 2500 receives this command and upon detecting devices at the
input, it begins to continuously program and label devices. To invoke a
new command, you must send a ! (the reset command).

Set Up —
where
XX
represents the maximum parts necessary to fill a
receiving tube. This is followed by a 2500 hex file.
This command specifies the number of devices to be processed and the
mode of operation, giving the 2500 the information needed to program
and label parts. After the command sequence is received, an @03, @12 or
@13 command is issued and the 2500 starts programming and labeling
immediately upon detecting devices at the input.
Response: R02 (Sent after the hex file is received)

XX
Program and Label Devices
(1 to 99 devices)—where
XX
represents the
number of devices to program/label.
This command programs and labels devices with the information
provided by a previously sent command, @02. When the specified
number of devices has been labeled, the 2500 responds with an R03 and
waits for another command. You may send as many @03 commands as
you need. If you want to program more than 99 devices, use the @12
command.
WARNING:An @02 command must have been sent previously or
random data will be printed.
Response: R03 (Sent after the devices have been labeled)
@@04 Request 2500 Firmware Version

XXX
in the response from the
2500 represents a three-digit decimal number in ASCII. For example, a
301 response represents firmware version 3.01.

@@05 Exit Remote Mode
—Takes the 2500 out of Remote mode. When this
command is issued, the 2500 performs a reset and returns to local mode,
re-enabling the front panel.

XXX
Label Placement
—where
XXX
represents the label placement value.
This command alters the front to back (lengthwise) placement of the label
on the device. The label placement value is a decimal number between 0
and 254. Each unit moves the label from the leading edge of the device by
0.010 inch. A value of 255 reverts the 2500 to auto centering. This
command remains in effect until power is turned off.
If you do not use this command, the 2500 uses the label placement value
entered in Setup.
