12.6 Character Code Tables
These tables can be used together with the SHIFT UP + V (CHAR TYPE) keys to enter characters not available
directly from the DC-200/300’s alphanumeric keyboard and numeric keypad.
12.6.1 ASCII Code
The DC-200/300 can send or receive any ASCII character value but, due to limitations of the scale display, some
characters cannot be shown on the screen. To enter an ASCII character in a text field that will support it (ex. Part
Name) enter the Hex code corresponding to the ASCII character you want. Use the decimal values for ASCII
characters listed below when specifying print format strings under the DC-200/300 blank menu.The actual
character printed depends on the character mapping used by the output device.
