132 T5023/5023+ - Programming Guide
The following diagram explains the selection of the different character sets:
– Th e character set defined by the user can be switched on using
ESC % (1) in the lower character table or using ESC t (2) in the
upper character table.
– After the control command ESC 6 has been entered, the complete
upper character table for characters defined by the user can be
used.
– During definition, the characters defined by the user are assigned
codes from 0 to 127. If the character set defined by the user is
switched on in the upper character table, 128 must be added to
the codes in order to print the desired character. For example,
PRINT (char (128 + 60)) prints the character defined under the
code 60. Thus, basic characters and characters defined by the
user can be printed simultaneously without switching the charac-
ter set.
– Using ESC 4, the characters defined by the user in the lower char-
acter table can be printed in italics.
