Formatting

Note

Information must be uploaded prior to using
the Formatting screen in Revolution.

With Revolution running and the new file screen
shown (from Figure 3-14), select

Communications

from

the upper toolbar. Select

Connect

and then select

upload configuration.

Select the Formatting icon to access the general
formatting screen shown in Figure 3-18. This would
generally be used when the Laser LT Auto Learn failed
to display weight or annunicators. By viewing
information on the screen, you are able to see what
information the Laser LT has captured. Changes can be
made and downloaded to the Laser LT to customize the
display weight and annunicators.

Figure 3-18. Formatting Screen

From this screen you can set up annuciator and weight
parsing.

The first text box on the screen shows the last received
data that the LaserLT sends when data is uploaded.
This is a "snapshot" of 50 characters that the LaserLT
received from the host. It will display the ASCII value
of each character in the frame. Use the start character
and end character's ASCII values to determine the
frame. Characters between the start and end characters
make up the frame. You should only refer to the first
full frame. There may be half of a frame at the
beginning due to the timing of when the LaserLT sent
the "last received" data.

Look at each location to see what it is and what token
needs to be updated.
