Predefined Forms
Code V comes with the following two predefined forms already stored in
permanent memory:
•AIAG form
•Preliminary Metals form
The barcode portions of these predefined forms can be prin ted at either 120
DPI high density or 60 DPI low density. However, the Halfdot Mode reduces
print speed by approximately 50% during the printing of the barc ode(s).
The predefined forms reside in the printer ROM. If a predefi ned form is used,
it is copied from ROM into the Heap Buffer RAM. The amount of RAM being
used ca be determined by executing the IFORM,L command. If the amount of
the RAM becomes insufficient for the creation of new forms, the predefined
forms can be deleted from RAM similar to user-defined fo rms using
^IFORM,D or ^IFORM,R.

AIAG Forms

The AIAG (Automotive Industry Action Group) form is a cretion of automotive
industry that utilizes both barcode and human-readable characters to create a
standardized label for shipping and identification. The CVCC con tains high
density and low density versions of the AIAG form in ROM. Th e names of
these forms are:
•AIAG_H.MT for low density.
•AIAG_F.MT for high density.
The following rules apply when using the AIAG forms:
1. If one of the data fields is not completely filled with data, the remaining
characers for that field must end with ^-, ^*, or ^+.
2. If the data field r equires both a human-readable field and a barcode field,
the same value must be sent for both fields.
