4.6.6.2 Downloadable Fonts and Graphics
When selecting downloadable fonts and graphics using TCI value of “7” or “8”, the CGN
denotes the memory slot (1-255) where the font or graphic has been stored. See Chapters
6 and 7 for additional information regarding downloadable fonts and graphics.
For example: If a graphic had been stored into RAM (volatile) memory slot 1 (see Chapter 5
for additional information), the proper TCI would be “8” and the CGN value would be “1”.
