Print Formatting

The

820i

provides print formats that determine the format of the printed output when the

PRINT

key is pressed, a

KPRINT serial command is received, or when setpoint push-print or truck weigh-in or weigh-out operations are

performed. Supported print formats are: GFMT, NFMT, ACCFMT, SPFMT, TRWIN, TRWOUT, ALERT,

AUXFMT1—AUXFMT20, and AUDITFMT. Additionally, two header formats, HDRFMT1 and HDRFMT2,

can be inserted into any of the other ticket formats using the <H1> and <H2>formatting commands. The

particular ticket format used for a given print operation depends on the indicator configuration (see Table

6-2 on

page

56) and the particular operation performed.

Each print format can be customized to include up to 1000 characters of information, such as company name and
address, on printed tickets. You can use the

Revolution

®

configuration utility, serial commands, or the indicator

front panel (PFORMT menu) to customize the print formats.
