FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS

FSL escape character

The coax interface for the Xerox MRP Family is managed by special escape sequences sent to the printer using the FSL commands. FSL escape sequences are command sequences preceded by a user-defined escape character. When an FSL escape character appears in the data stream, the printer interprets the characters following it as a command string and not as characters to be printed.

When you have defined an escape character, you can configure the interface according to your needs.

When a character has been defined as an escape character, you cannot use it as a normal character and print it. However, you do not need to have an escape character defined permanently.

When it has served its purpose, it can be removed.

The escape character described in this chapter is different from the printer escape character and the IBM escape character and cannot be used for sending native printer commands or system commands.

This section describes how to configure and manage the coax interface controller for the 4220/MRP and 4230/MRP by the use of escape sequences.

The factory defaults of the printer suffice for most uses, and in most cases, system software controls the facilities described in this chapter.

Types of FSL escape character

FSL escape characters are either temporary or permanent. Their functionalities are as follows:

Temporary (&&??n)

·

Changes the interface set-up.

 

· Activates any FSL function.

 

·

Sends transparent data.

 

· Stores and retrieves interface settings.

 

The syntax, &&??@, for instance, defines @ as the temporary

 

escape character. The five-character syntax is sent to the printer

 

from the host system. This escape character is not defined

 

permanently, and is lost when the printer is powered off.

Permanent

·

Has the same functionalities as a temporary escape character.

 

· Remains active at power on.

Use FSL function Y48 to select a permanent escape character that immediately saves the settings in the permanent memory. Refer to the ªY48ÐPermanent Escapeº section for further description.

Using FSL escape character

You may define this character by sending the following character sequence from the host:

&&??@
