Selecting the character set

Function:

Using ESC t (n), one of the following character sets of the complete upper cha-
racter table is selected:

Italic character set (n= 0)
The upper character table contains the italic characters of the current cha-
racter set (draft, LQ or defined by the user). The upper control code table
contains control codes (identical to those of the lower control code table).

Graphics character set (n= 1)
The complete upper character table contains graphics characters and inter-
national special characters.

Character set defined by the user (n= 2)
The upper character table contains the characters defined by the user. The-
se characters can be used simultaneously with the standard characters
(ROM) without switching character set. For this, 128 must be added to each
code assigned with ESC & when defining the characters.

The introductory section “Selection of the character set” in this

sets.

If ESC t (2) is used without previously defining characters, the up-
per and lower character tables are identical.
