Data Field Separator - This field is used to specify the character that is to be
used to separate the fields in the downloaded message. The default is to
use the comma character. However, it may be necessary to include the
comma as part of the text to be printed. If this is the case, change the data
field separator to another character that is guaranteed not to be part of the
data text. Binary data may be included in the separator as follows: \x09 se-
lects the TAB character. This may also be specified as \t or \ <TAB>. Control
codes can be specified in this way using the standard ASCII name for the
codes. Binary values above 128 may be specified using the hexadecimal
value as in the first example.

Include Fixed Fields - The Standard Message Format begins with fixed
fields that specify the layout filename, quantity, copy count, sequential num-
ber, virtual magazine ID, exit bin identifier and end-of-job offline command.
These fields can be selectively included in the download format by checking
the associated box. Note that each fixed field is individually included/ex-
cluded.

Include Extra Fields - In previous versions, the host could only write data
into the corresponding Operator Entry fields of the layout. Any data sent
from the host that did not have an associated operator entry was ignored. In
V1.20 and above, the extra data can be placed directly into the text fields
themselves. Each field after the last operator entry field is designated
Field 1, Field 2 and so on. The layout text field with the same with the same
Link ID will be replaced with the associated data. For example, the data in
the first field following the operator data will be placed into the layout text
field that has a Link ID of 1.

Depending upon what protocol you select, an additional tab may appear at
the top of the dialog. This panel allows you to set additional configuration
information for the selected protocol.
