Programming for Expert Users
This document is addressed to expert users who are familiar with software programming
languages and want to define a
1personalized code formatting. The provided programming
language allows creating either simple or complex formatting expressions by means of the basic
functions connected together through the following operators: (, ), -, +.
The syntax to be used to transmit the expre
ssions to the Gryphon D432/D412Plus is the
following:
$+ELB<n>formatting expression<ETX>$-
where:
• <n> is a number in the range 1-5 corresponding to the format to be defined;
• <ET
X> is the conventional character used as terminator of the command;
• the formatting expression uses ASCII
characters when containing text strings. For this rea-
son, the string must be inserted between two quotation marks. The foll
owing example
shows the ASCII conversion of the "ABC" string:
$+ELB1}414243+#DS^C$-
