User-Defined Set Command (USET)

Purpose Creates custom character sets (except OCR fonts) from existing characters stored in memory.

Mode NORMAL

Format (cc)USET n ca;fa

END

(cc)Represents the Special Function Control Character.

USET The User Set command; enter USET.

nSelects USET character set number; enter a value ranging from 1 through 8.

ca	Represents the ASCII character cell hex address
	which will have its contents replaced with the
	character located in the font address (fa). The ca
	value must be one of the 16 hex values specified in
	Table 23 on page 255.
fa	Represents the hexadecimal value for the font
	address of a specified character in the Multinational
	character set which will replace the current
	contents of ca. The fa value is the character
	substitution for the cell address (ca). The value of
	fa may range from 20 through FF hex.
END	Ends the USET command.

Comments You can define up to 16 character substitutions for each of the eight user-definable character sets. It is not necessary to address all 16 spaces available for character substitutions with a single USET command.

The character sets in the USET command are numbered 1 through 8. The character set values in the Character Set Selection (ISET) command (page 256) are numbered 24 through 31 and correspond to User Sets 1 through 8. The ISET command accesses and prints that custom character set.

The USET and ISET commands are related as shown in Table

23.Therefore, ISET;24 selects the substitution set defined as USET1, ISET;29 selects USET6, etc.
